The Deserted Isle
The following people were stranded on a deserted tropical island:
- 2 Italian men and 1 Italian woman
- 2 French men and 1 French woman
- 2 German men and 1 German woman
- 2 Greek men and 1 Greek woman
- 2 English men and 1 English woman
- 2 Bulgarian men and 1 Bulgarian woman
- 2 Japanese men and 1 Japanese woman
- 2 Chinese men and 1 Chinese woman
- 2 American men and 1 American woman
- 2 Irish men and 1 Irish woman
One month later, the following things have occurred:
One Italian man killed the other Italian man for the Italian woman;
The 2 French men and the French woman are living happily together in a menage-a-trois;
The 2 German men have a strict weekly schedule of alternating visits with the German woman;
The 2 Greek men are sleeping with each other and the Greek woman is cleaning and cooking for them;
The 2 English men are waiting for someone to introduce them to the English woman;
The 2 Bulgarian men took one look at the endless ocean, another long look at the Bulgarian woman, and started swimming...
The Japanese men have faxed Tokyo and are awaiting instructions;
The Chinese men have set up a pharmacy, a liquor store, a restaurant, and a laundromat. And they've gotten the Chinese woman pregnant in order to supply employees for the store;
The Irish men have divided the Island into North and South and set up a distillery. They do not remember the woman because it gets sort of foggy after the first few liters of coconut whiskey, but they are satisfied because the English blokes aren't having any fun;
and the American men are contemplating the virtues of suicide because the American woman keeps endlessly complaining about her body, the true nature of feminism, how she can do everything they can do, the necessity of fulfillment, the equal division of household chores, how sand and palm trees make her look fat, how her last boyfriend respected her opinion and treated her nicer than they do, how her relationship with her mother is improving, and at least the taxes are low, and it isn't raining....
