> ---------
> An elderly woman lived on a small farm in Canada, just yards away
> from the North Dakota border. Their land had been the subject of
> a minor dispute between the United States and Canada for years.
> The now widowed woman, lived on the farm with her son and three
> grandchildren.
> One day, her son came into her room holding a letter. "I just got
> some news, Mom," he said. "The government has come to an agreement
> with the people in North Dakota. They've decided that our land is
> really part of the United States. We have the right to approve or
> disapprove of the agreement. What do you think?"
> "What do I think?" his mother said. "Sign it! Call them right
> now and tell them we accept! I don't think I could stand another
> one of those Canadian winters!"
