A shipwreck in the South Pacific has only three survivors who wash ashore on an island inhabited by cannibals. One is Frenchman. One is an Englishman. One is a New Yorker. They are quickly captured by the natives and brought to the village where the tribal elders announce that the foreigners will be eaten for dinner and their skins will be used to build a new canoe for the warriors. As the Frenchman is dragged away kicking and screaming, he yells, "Viva La France!" As the Englishman is dragged away scratching and clawing, he screams, "God Save The Queen!" As the New Yorker is dragged away, he pulls out a switchblade and stabs himself repeatedly... shouting, "Screw Your Canoe!" |
