Samoa woke up this morning to discover that Friday had simply disappeared!
Inhabitants of the tiny island near New Zealand took to the
streets in fear, as it became apparent it wasn’t just the local alcoholics
who’d woken up with a banging head ache asking where they were: the most sober
Samoan was, in fact, asking when they
were?
The country’s beleaguered Prime Minister Chronos stated:
“I’m sure I had it yesterday – I only put it down for a second and when I went
back for it, someone had moved it.”
Secretary of State for Culture, Cllr. Heuristic was initially
furious – with Samoa once proudly boasting that it was the last place on the
earth to see the sunset, the loss of the day had put them ahead of island
rivals American Samoa and all the new 2012 merchandise would now go to waste.
However, upon reflection, she stated:
“That’s unless we can offload it on American Samoa of course – and let’s
face it, they only need a nice bright red marker pen to add “American” in front
of the “Samoa” part – they’re not that fussy to be honest.”
Prime Minister Chronos was still perplexed mid morning, but quick
to reassure his citizens, saying: “I know I had it when I went upstairs to get
my glasses. I’ve retraced my steps and found my glasses, which I put down when
I answered the phone - because my secretary was checking under all the beds - but
the day just seems to have vanished into thin air. I’m sure it’ll turn up soon.”
