General Musharaf, President of Pakistan was awoken at 4am by the telephone.
"Jannab, its the Minister of Health here. Sorry to bother you at this hour but there is an emergency! I've just received word that the Durex factory in Rawalpindi has been burnt to the ground. It is estimated that the entire Pakistani supply of condoms will be gone by the end of the week."
"What a disaster! The economy will never be able to cope with all those unwanted babies- we'll be ruined!"
"We're going to have to ship some condoms in from abroad..."
" Afghanistan
"No chance!! The tabloids will have a field day on this one!"
"What about India?"
Maybe- but we don't want them to know that we are stuck.
Call the Indian Prime Minister, Vajpayee- tell him we need one million condoms; coloured gold and green; ten inches long and eight inches thick!
That way they'll know how big the Pakis really are!!" Miyan Musharaf called Vajpayee, who agreed to help the Pakis out in their hour of need.
Three days later a flight arrived inIslamabad- full of boxes.
A delighted Gen. Musharaf rushed out to open the boxes.
He found condoms; 10 inches long; 8 inches thick, all coloured green and gold.
