Coffee Hurts

In the week leading up to Canada Day, I was eating lunch with a friend and her 6-year-old granddaughter. The 6-year old was pretty animated as she talked about school and friends and teachers.

As I sipped my coffee, I asked her, "What special day is coming soon on July 1st?" 

She said "Canada Day". She's a smart kid. So, I asked.... 

"What does Canada Day mean?" 

Waiting for her reply with something about the flag, confederation etc. She
replied.......

"Canada Day is when the Prime Minister steps out of the Parliament
Building , and if he sees his shadow we have one more year of unemployment." ....... 

You know, - it hurts when hot coffee spurts out your nose.
