YOU: Did you know that if a "fire-engine" is yellow or green then it is
actually NOT a fire-engine at all?
FRIEND: Huh?
YOU: Indeed, it is merely a green water-truck or a yellow
hose-mobile. To be a fire-engine it MUST be RED. Would you like to
know why?
FRIEND: No, but I guess your going to tell me anyway!
YOU: Here goes,  I claim that all fire-engines are red.
                 Well, roses are red too,
                 too and too are four,
                 for and eight are twelve.
                 Now, there are twelve inches in a ruler,
                 and Queen Mary was a ruler.
                 But Queen Mary was also a ship.
                 Ships sail in the sea,
                 fish swim in the sea.
                 Fish have fins,
                 The Finns fought the Russians, and
                 at that time, the Russians were still Reds.
                 Well, fire-engines are always rushin'
                 Hence, fire-engines are RED.
                                             Q.E.D.
