Funny Jokes - A great loss
Bill Clinton is visiting a school. In one class, he asks the students if anyone can give him an example of a TRAGEDY. One little boy stands up and offers, 'If my best friend who lives next door was playing in the street when a car came along and killed him, that would be a TRAGEDY.'
'No,' Clinton says, 'that would be an ACCIDENT.'
A girl raises her hand. 'If a school bus carrying fifty children drove off a cliff, killing everyone involved... that would be a TRAGEDY.'
'I'm afraid not,' explains Clinton. 'That is what we would call a GREAT LOSS.'
The room is silent; none of the other children volunteer. 'What?' asks Clinton. 'Isn't there any one here who can give me an example of a TRAGEDY?'
Finally, a boy in the back raises his hand. In a timid voice, he speaks, 'If an airplane carrying Bill and Hillary Clinton were blown up by a bomb, THAT would be a TRAGEDY.'
'Wonderful!' Clinton beams. 'Marvelous! And can you tell me WHY that would be a TRAGEDY?'
'Well,' says the boy, 'because it wouldn't be an ACCIDENT, and it certainly would be no GREAT LOSS!'
