Train

The train was quite crowded, so a U. S. Marine walkedthe entire length looking for a seat, but the onlyseat left was taken by a well dressed, middle-aged,English woman's poodle.The war-weary Marine asked,
"Ma'am, may I have thatseat ?"
The woman just sniffed and said to no one inparticular,
"Americans are so rude. My little Fifi isusing that seat."
The Marine walked the entire train again, but the onlyseat 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 arealso arrogant!"
This time the Marine didn't say a word; he just pickedup the little dog,tossed it out the train window, and sat down.
The woman shrieked,
"Someone must defend my honour !!!And put this American in his place !!!"
An English gentleman sitting nearby lowered hisnewspaper and said...
"Sir, you Americans seem to have a penchant for doingthe wrong thing... You hold the fork in the wronghand. You drive your autos on the wrong side of theroad. And now, sir, you seem to have thrown the wrongbitch out the window."
