A Touching Story

The train was packed, and the US soldier walked the entire length looking for a seat, but a well-dressed, middle-aged, French woman's poodle took the only seat remaining. The war-weary soldier asked, "Ma'am, may I have that seat?"

The French woman just sniffed and said to no one in particular, "Americans are so rude. My little Fifi is using that seat."

The soldier walked the entire train again, but the only seat left was under that dog.

"Please, ma'am. May I sit down? I'm very tired."

She snorted, "Not only are you Americans rude, you are also arrogant!"

This time the soldier didn't say a word; he just picked up the little dog, tossed it out the train window, and sat down.

The woman shrieked, "Someone must defend my honor! Put this American In his place !"

An English gentleman sitting nearby spoke up,

(punchline below the fold)

"Sir, you Americans seem to have a penchant for doing the wrong thing. You hold the fork in the wrong hand, you drive your vehicles on the wrong side of the road.

And now, Sir, you seem to have thrown the wrong bitch out the window."
