An Ontarian wanted to become a Newfie (ie. a Newfoundlander). He went to a neurosurgeon and asked Is there anything you can do to me that would make me into a Newfie?

Sure, its easy. replied the neurosurgeon. All I have to do is cut out 1/3 of your brain, and youll be a Newfie.

The Ontarian was very pleased, and immediately underwent the operation. However, the surgeons knife slipped, and instead of cutting out 1/3 of the patients brain, the surgeon accidentally cut out 2/3 of the patients brain. He was terribly remorseful, and waited impatiently beside the patients bed as the patient recovered from the anesthetic.

As soon as the patient was conscious, the nurosurgeon said to him – Im terribly sorry, but there was a ghastly accident. Instead of cutting out 1/3 of your brain, I accidentally cut out 2/3 of your brain.

The patient replied Quest-ce que vous avez dit, monsieur?
