Where Blame Does not Lie

A Chinese and Jewish man were eating lunch together.  Without warning, the Jewish guy gets up and punches the Chinese fellow.
The Chinese man picks himself up and asks, “What in the world did you do that for?”
He replied, “For Pearl Harbor!”
“I didn’t have anything to do with Pearl Harbor!” he responded.  “That was the Japanese.”
The Jewish man responds, “Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese – they’re all the same.”
They both sit down once more and before long the Chinese man jumped out of his chair and hit the Jewish fellow with a hard blow to the jaw.
The man picks himself up, rubs his jaw, and yells, “What did you do that for?”
“For the Titanic!”
“The Titanic?? I had nothing to do with the Titanic.”
The Chinese man replies, “Iceberg, Goldberg, Feinberg, they’re all the same to me.”

Old joke with constant moral.  Do not blame the whole for what a part does.

“Between 1305 and the early 1800’s. the House of Taxis ran a form of pony express service all over Europe….   Its couriers clad in blue and silver uniforms, crisscrossed the continent carrying messages between princes and generals, merchants and money lenders.” –Alvin Toffler, The Third Wave We may think we are the first generation consumed by rapid communication but we are not.   Throughout our history it has been a priority. Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
