Denmark and Canada are at odds over an uninhabited island that lies between the two countries, Hans Island. Territorial growth can be dangerous and lethal, but here's the normal fight of the bottles.
contemporary heritage has it that Canada planted its flag first, along with a bottle of Canadian whiskey left behind as a gesture of goodwill. When the Danes found out the Canadian claims, they replaced them with a Danish flag and a bottle of Danish schnapps. each side have now taken to assaulting the island, plundering the spoils of struggle, changing those spoils with their own spoils, and retreating.
the way it will conclusion no person knows, however the Danes and Canadians have set the general for twenty first century conflicts.
On one more entrance, at a state dinner on his contemporary discuss with to Malaysia, President Duterte of the Philippines and Malaysian prime Minister Najib Razak sang a duet, "Sha-La-La-La-La." where there is not any San Miguel, there is not any karaoke.
North Korea might very neatly take a lesson here and prolong to South Korea a bottle of soju, inciting South Korea to come the prefer with a bottle of yakju. The Korean Police action will ultimately be over, the us should be in a position to withdraw from the Korean peninsula and a pervading peace shall be successful. Ukraine, are you listening? present Putin a bottle of Horika, for Pete's sake!
The closing time the usa enjoyed a modicum of political harmony changed into when President Reagan had cocktails on a daily foundation with Speaker of the condo Tip O'Neill.
be aware the beer summit when President Obama invited Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates and a Cambridge police officer to the White condo to resolve their variations over a conversation within the beer backyard?
I'm now not advocating alcohol-fueled diplomacy, however in basic terms remembering what Socrates informed us: "Wine moistens the soul and lulls our griefs to sleep, but also wakens kindly feelings."
So with the Canadians and Danes in mind, here is a guideline from The Sage of Tula Tulia* to President-opt for Trump.
purchase a bottle of Jack Daniel's Tennessee Honey, and invite as much as your suite within the Trump Tower Supreme courtroom Justices Breyer, Ginsburg, Kagan and Sotomayor, Minority chief of the residence Nancy Pelosi and Minority leader of the Senate Chuck Schumer, and begin the night with a toast that may go whatever thing like this: "Mark Twain reminds us, 'The only authentic patriot, the most effective rational patriot, is loyal to the nation the entire time, and constant to the govt when it deserves it.' smartly, the Trump government desires to deserve your loyalty, and may do every little thing in its vigour to justify that loyalty. So here's to pulling together in the spirit of compromise and compassion, whereas bearing in mind that love of country should still under no circumstances supersede love of humanity."
Pour the honey liberally (with the intention to communicate) and tell a shaggy dog story, as humor continues to be the superior medication on the shelf. I could like to suggest a comic story that goes some thing like this: "An independent, a conservative and a liberal walk right into a bar. The impartial protests, 'whats up, it's smoky in here!' The conservative sniffs, 'Yeah, smells like cannabis to me!' And the liberal shouts, 'close the door, you're lettin' the smoke out!'"
No, if Jack Daniel's Honey doesn't calm down each person's spleens and create some unity, I don't be aware of Tennessee.
*Tula Tulia is purported by using some to be an American Indian name for Lake Tahoe. Layne lives on the shore of Lake Tahoe.
McAvoy Layne has been a Mark Twain impressionist considering 1988. which you could attain him ghostoftwain.com.
