I’m not much a “joke” teller, but I was told this one the other day and thought it was funny enough to share.

Early in the morning, National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley received some troubling news over the wires and rushed into the Oval Office to inform the President.

“Mr. President,” he stammered, “we’ve received some troubling news. There has been an international incident in Sao Paulo. The information is still spotty, but so far there have been at least nine Brazilian nationals confirmed killed.”

Shocked, the President looked up from his desk, the color having completely drained from his face. “Hads, that’s horrible! May God have mercy on their souls. How many is a brazillion?”
