John Howard called Jenny Shipley
with an emergency. "Our largest
condom factory exploded!" the Aussie
PM cried, "My people's favourite form of
birth control! This is a true disaster!"
"John, you must know that we Kiwis
would be happy to do anything
within our power to help you,"
replied Jenny.
"I do need your help," said Howard.
"Could you possibly send a million
condoms ASAP to tide us over?"
"Certainly! I'll get right on it" said Jenny.
"Oh, and one more small favour,
please?" said John. "Could the condoms
be yellow and green in colour,
at least 10" long & 4" in diameter?"
"No problem," replied Jenny and hung up.
Jenny then called the president
of Durex Condoms. "I need a favour,
you've got to make a million condoms
right away and send them to Australia."
"Consider it done," said the president of Durex.
"Great! Now listen, they have to be green & Yellow, at least 10" long & 4" in diameter."
"Easily done. Anything else?"
"Yes," said Jenny "and print MADE
IN NEW ZEALAND - SIZE; SMALL on
each one."
