A British researcher studying humor asked Web surfers worldwide to rate their favorite yuks. More than 40,000 jokes and two million ratings later, the king of the knee slappers has been crowned: "Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other man pulls out his phone and calls emergency services. He gasps to the operator: 'My friend is dead! What can I do?' The operator replies: 'Take it easy. First, let's make sure he's dead.' There is a silence, then a shot is heard. Back on the phone, the hunter says, 'OK, now what?'" LOL! One of the most interesting finds in the study: Germans laughed the most, Canadians the least.
