My duck's on fire! Somebody Get me an elephant!

I thought I'd return from my consumptive hiatus with a laugh.

Some UK based scientists have just completed a yearlong study on international humor. Their website detail which jokes were funniest in which countries. My favorite has to be Belgium's top joke.

Why do ducks have webbed feet?
To stamp out fires.
Why do elephants have flat feet?
To stamp out burning ducks.

Also, the joke from England.

Two weasels are sitting on a bar stool. One starts to insult the other one. He screams, "I slept with your mother!" The bar gets quiet as everyone listens to see what the other weasel will do. The first again yells, "I SLEPT WITH YOUR MOTHER!" The other says, "Go home dad you’re drunk."

I did find one thing telling, though. The joke that scored best with Americans was a sexist dig at someone's old hag wife. The top Canadian joke was making fun of Americans. I like the Canadian joke better.
