    Two American Indians were sitting on a trunk. A little Indian and a big Indian. The little Indian was the son of the big Indian, but the big Indian was no father of the little Indian. How do you explain this?

    (by Indian I mean native American)

      yes but only mother is right, because if you say that he's not a father, but a stepfather, then you can't say the boy is a son, because then he is a stepson.

      Congrats! Maybe it was a bit lame. smile

    Gee, if mango's really in Hungary then what was she doing awake at 4am?  They're 6 hours behind our time in China.  Shame, poor Mango must have so much on her mind if she can't sleep at 4am in the morning!
