To the very end, PingPing couldn't

resist a fart joke, well-told.

"PingPing was only about this tall. He was way too

short to die."

"PingPing, I would suppose the air

is considerably cooler and thicker

down there. Am I right?"

Sure, PingPing was the world's shortest man,

but he could tell the 'Pull My Finger' joke

better than men much taller.

"Hey, PingPing! Thanks for bringing the shoe!

I'll bet the Canadians will have to build a bigger
shoe cannon to fire that one at George Bush!"

Bao Xi Shun, on the left, represents the number of

American casualties in the Vietnam War. PingPing, on

the right, represents the number of American casualties

in the Iraq War. As you can see, PingPing has a lot of

catching up to do.
