The Forum

Barak Obama and Gordon Brown are shown a time machine which can see 100 years into the future. They both decide to test it by asking a question each.



Barak goes first.



“What will the USA be like in 100 years time”



The machine whirrs and beeps and goes into action and gives

him a printout, he reads it out "The country is in good hands under the new president, crime is non-existent, there is no conflict. The economy is healthy. There are no worries."




Gordon thinks “Its not bad this time machine, I'll have a bit of that", so he asks "What will Great Britain be like in 100 years' time?"




The machine whirs and beeps and goes into action, and he gets a printout. But he's just staring at it.




“Come on, Gordon” says Barak, “What does it say?”



Gordon replies, “Buggered if I know! It's all in Arabic!”

Ouch.

Apparently from what I've read, entirely accurate, except for the part about America. It should have read:

"What's America?"
