    Three men, a Scotsman, a Frenchman, and an Englishman were given a sentence of life imprisonment for manslauter in Saudi Arabia.

    When they got to the trial the judge said,
    "It is my daughter's birthday, so you will only be lashed 100 times."

    They went to the whip-man and he said,
    "Today is my birthday, you may all have a wish"

    The Frenchman, who went first  said,
    "I would like a pillow strapped to my back".
    He got 33 painless lashes until the pillow broke. He then got hit 77 times on his back.

    The Scotsman asked for two pillows.
    He got 66 painless lashes until the pillows broke. Then got 34 whips on his back.

    The whip-man said to the Englishman,
    "England is a noble country, therefore you may have two wishes.

    The Englishman said,
    "Thank you, my first wish is to increase my number of whippings to the maximum 1000.
    My second wish is to have the Frenchman strapped to my back."
