I Love theguardian - reason # 193

Two jokes - one from yesterday:

Jean-Paul Sartre was busily working on Being and Nothingness in a Paris cafe. He paused to ask the waitress for a "coffee with no cream". "I'm afraid we have no cream, monsieur," she replied. "How about a coffee with no milk?"

And then a followup today:

Descartes in a coffee shop. "Would you like cream with that?" asked the waiter. "I think not," replied Descartes, who promptly disappeared.


And revealed today - Dame Stella Rimington, former head of MI5 (the intelligence agency, not a Tom Cruise (nutter extraordinaire) vehicle) comes out as a guardian reader.
