"The road is cleared," said Galt.
"We are going back to the world."
He raised his hand
and over the desolate earth
he traced in space
the sign of the dollar.

A Jewish farmer, walking through his hay field, notices a man kneeling and drinking from his pond. The farmer shouts: "Trink nicht die wasser! Die keyen haben gesheissen dorten." (Meaning, "Don't drink the water! The cows shit in it.") ... The kneeling man shouts angrily, "I am a Muslim. I speak Arabic and English. If you can't speak the sacred tongue of the Koran, speak to me in English." ... The farmer replies: "Use both hands! You'll get more."

Siamese twins walk into a pub in Canada and park themselves on a bar stool. One of them says to the bartender, "Don't mind us, we're joined at the hip. I'm John, he's Jim. Two Molson Canadian beers, draft please."

The bartender, feeling slightly awkward, tries to make polite conversation while pouring the beers. "Been on holiday yet, lads?"

"Off to England next month," says John. "We go to England every year and hire a car and drive for miles, don't we, Jim?" Jim agrees.

"Ah, England!" says the bartender. "Wonderful country... the history, the beer, the culture...

"Nah, we don't like that British crap," says John.

"Hamburgers & Molsons beer, that's us, eh Jim? And we can't stand the English - they're so arrogant and rude."

"So why keep going to England?" asks the bartender.

"It's the only chance Jim gets to drive."
