Had to be there


So I muted the tv after having a random thought so I could talk to Doug about our impending honeymoon  while he was out on the balcony. This is how that particular laugh inducing moment went... 

Me “Hey, I heard today that Fiji has some of the most polluted water in the world?”
Doug “Yeah, I told you that.”
Me “No, you didn’t.
Doug “Yeah, that George Speight guy came in and took over.”
Me “What?”
Doug “Well, he‘s the leader of the army and came in and locked up the president and said ‘now I’m in charge’. That happened about 10 years ago.”
Me “What does that have to do with polluted water?
Doug “That’s what you call it when the army comes in and takes over.”
Me “Polluted water?”
Doug “No, pol...it...ical order (said slowly and with understanding dawning).” Sigh and fail!
Bahahahahaha! Maybe you had to be there =D

BTW, George did lead a coup back in 2000 but he was a business man and not the leader of the army. You can read all about that little nightmare here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Speight
