FRIDAY FUNNIES...


' Who Knew? '

After having dug to a depth of 10 meters last year, New York scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 100 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 100 years ago.

Not to be outdone by the New Yorkers, in the weeks that followed, California scientists dug to a depth of 20 meters, and shortly after, headlines in the LA Times newspaper read:
"California archaeologists have found traces of 150 year old copper wire and have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network fifty years earlier than the New Yorkers."

One week later, "The Cape Breton Post", a local newspaper in Nova Scotia, reported the following:
"After digging as deep as 30 meters in a brush field near Sydney,Angus Sampson, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing. Angus has therefore concluded that 200 years ago, Cape Breton had already gone wireless."


JUST SHOWS YOU HOW INTELLIGENT WE PEOPLE FROM CAPE BRETON ARE
