Newly discovered Sumerian joke:

Q: How many Akkadians does it take to light a lamp?

A: None. The Akkadians, in their ignorance, pray to Enlil for deliverance from the curse of darkness.

From this story on Yahoo News:

"The world's oldest recorded joke has been traced back to 1900 BC and suggests that toilet humor was as popular with the ancients as it is today.

It is a saying of the Sumerians, who lived in what is now southern Iraq and goes: 'Something which has never occurred since time immemorial; a young woman did not fart in her husband's lap.'"

Those zany Sumerians! What a laff riot!

OK...Did you hear about the newlywed couple who didn't know the difference between vaseline and putty? All of their windows fell out.

Thanks Treeseed! I just heard it today on the radio in a piece about joke-telling in suppressive political regimes.

That, S of G, is my new favorite quotation. I love it...and so true.
