Let me say that this is a Kiwi joke and I hope all Kiwi's reading it take it in the spirit in which it is told. I have several New Zealand friends and they have a terrific sense of humour and the ability to laugh at themselves. I have no intention of offending anyone. Here is the joke.
50,000 Kiwis meet in <st1></st1><st1><st1:placename w:st="on">Eden</st1:placename> <st1:placetype w:st="on">Park</st1:placetype></st1> for a "Kiwis Are Not Stupid Convention.
Helen Clark says, "We are all here today to prove to the world thet Kiwis
are not stupid. Ken I hev a volunteer."
Carlos Spencer (All Black Star) gingerly works his way through the crowd
and steps up to the stage.
Helen asks him, "What uz fufteen plus fufteen?" After fufteen or twinty
seconds Carlos says, "Eighteen!"
Obviously everyone is a little disappointed. Then all 50,000 Kiwis start
chanting, "GUV HUM ANOTHER CHANCE! GUV HUM ANOTHER CHANCE!"
Helen says, "Well sunce we've gone to the trouble of gitting 50,000 of you
un one place end we have the world wide priss end global broadcast media
here, I thunk we ken guv hum another chance."
So she asks, "What uz siven plus siven?"
After nearly thirty seconds he eventually says, "Ninety!"
Helen is quite perplexed, looks down and just lets out a dejected sigh -
everyone is disheartened.
Carlos starts crying and the 50,000 Kiwis begin to yell and wave their
hands
shouting, "GUV HUM ANOTHER CHANCE! GUV HUM ANOTHER CHANCE!"
Helen, unsure whether or not she is doing more harm than good, eventually
says, "Ok! Ok! Just one more chance...What uz two plus two?"
Carlos closes his eyes, and after a whole minute eventually says, "Four!"
Throughout the stadium pandemonium breaks out as all 50,000 Kiwis jump to
their feet, wave their arms, stamp their feet and scream "GUV HUM ANOTHER
CHANCE! GUV HUM ANOTHER CHANCE!"
