IJMC Foreign Affairs for the Nineties

                IJMC - Foreign Affairs for the Nineties

My second full decade is drawing to a close and I'm wondering what the 
00's will be remembered for. Well, I'm also wondering what the nineties 
will truly be remembered for and I hope it isn't just for political 
bickering. If it is, I do hope we learn a lesson for it, and if it isn't, 
well, it couldn't hurt to learn the same lesson. G'night all.       -dave






This is what foreign affairs are all about!

There is a beautiful desert island in the middle of nowhere where the
following people are stranded :
* 2 Italian men and 1 Italian woman
* 2 French men and 1 French woman
* 2 German men and 1 German woman
* 2 Greek men and 1 Greek woman
* 2 English men and 1 English woman
* 2 Bulgarian men and 1 Bulgarian woman
* 2 Swedish men and 1 Swedish woman
* 2 Irish men and 1 Irish woman

One month later on this beautiful desert island in the middle of nowhere....
* The 1 Italian man killed the other for the Italian woman.
* The 2 French men and the French woman are living happily together in a
  "menage a trois".
* The 2 German men have a strict weekly schedule of when they alternate with
  the German woman.
* The 2 Greek men are sleeping with each other and the Greek woman is
  cleaning and cooking for them.
* The 2 English men are waiting for someone to introduce them to the English
  woman.
* The Bulgarian men took one look at the endless ocean, one look at the
  woman and started swimming.
* The 2 Swedish men are contemplating the virtues of suicide while the woman
  keeps on bitching about her body being her own and the true nature of
  feminism. But at least it's not snowing and the taxes are low.
* The Irish began by dividing their island Northside-Southside and setting
  up a distillery. They don't remember if sex is in the picture, cause it 
  gets sort of foggy after the first few litres of coconut-whiskey, but 
  at least they know the English aren't getting any.
