Some John Cleese humor from a couple of years ago:

Axis of Evil

by John Cleese

Bitter after being snubbed for membership in the "Axis

of Evil", Libya, China and Syria today announced that

they had formed the "Axis of Just as Evil", which they

said would be more evil than that stupid Iran-Iraq-North

Korea axis President Bush warned of at his State of the

Union address.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-il declared

"Everybody knows we're the best evils . . . best at

being evil . . . we're the best."

Diplomats from Syria denied they were jealous over

being excluded. They told us it was full,"

said Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

"An axis can't have more than three countries",

explained Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. "This is not

my rule, it's tradition. In World War II you had

Germany, Italy, and Japan in the evil Axis. So, you

can only have three, and a secret handshake. Ours is

wicked cool."

Cuba, Sudan and Serbia announced that

they had formed the "Axis of Somewhat Evil", forcing Somalia to join

with Uganda and Myanmar in the "Axis of Occasionally Evil", while

Bulgaria, Indonesia and Russia established the "Axis of Not So Much

Evil Really as Just Generally Disagreeable".

With the criteria suddenly expanded and all the

desirable clubs filling up, Sierra Leone, El Salvador,

and Rwanda applied to be called the "Axis of Countries

That Aren't the Worst But Certainly Won't Be Asked to

Host the Olympics".

Canada, Mexico and Australia formed the "Axis of

Nations That Are Actually Quite Nice But Secretly Have

Some Nasty Thoughts About America", while Scotland,

New Zealand and Spain established the "Axis of

Countries That Want Sheep to Wear Lipstick".

"That's not a threat, really, just something we

like to do", said Scottish Executive First Minister

Jack McConnell.

While wondering if the other nations of the world

weren't perhaps making fun of him, a cautious Bush

granted approval for most axes, although he rejected

the establishment of the "Axis of Countries Whose

Names End in 'Guay", accusing one of its members of

filing a false application. Officials from Paraguay,

Uruguay, and Chadguay denied the charges.

Israel, meanwhile, insisted it didn't want to join any

Axis, but privately world leaders said that's only

because no one asked them.
