My apologies in advance to any one who is offended by this 'stamp" joke.

Canada Post has created a new stamp with a picture of Prime Minister Stephen Harper on it.

The stamp is not sticking to envelopes.

This has enraged the Prime Minister, who demanded a full investigation.

After a month of testing and spending $4.1 million, a special commission has presented the following findings:

1. The stamp is in perfect order.

2. There is nothing wrong with the adhesive.

3. The Public is spitting on the wrong side of the stamp.

Don't worry about it Blackjag, I made the same mistake with the Trudeau stamp, but I was doing it on purpose

I think this joke has been used in other countries, as well. I recently read the same joke with former Australian Prime Minister Jill Gillard.

That explains why , when I put my face on a stamp, I go through the picture postage process....no need to spit on it to put on an envelope

You Canadians get all the fun. US stamps only honor the deceased.

A quick internet search shows that joke was around back in 2008, involving several US Presidents and Prime Ministers of multiple countries.

Here's another old timer:


Quote:
Larry's stamp collection was stolen, and Susan, his wife, called the insurance company: "We had that collection insured for fifty thousand and I want my money".

Agent: "Whoa there just a minute, Susan. It doesn't work quite like that. We will ascertain the value of the collection and provide you with a similar one of comparable worth."

Susan, after a pause: "I'd like to cancel the policy on my husband..."
