It's Friday, the first of the year, so here is the first joke of the year!
Barbara Walters, of 20/20, did a story in Kabul,Afghanistan,
several years before
the Afghan conflict. She noted women walked five paces behind
their husbands.
She recently returned to Kabul-and observed that women still walk behind their husbands. Despite the overthrow of the oppressive Taliban regime, the women now seem happy to maintain the old custom.
Ms. Walters approached one of the Afghani women and asked,
"Why do you now seem happy with an old custom that you once
tried so desperately to change?"
'The
woman looked Ms Walters straight in the eyes, and without hesitation
said, "Land mines."
