A picture from the Cambridge textbook on English idioms.
Does a way exist I can upload a picture from my PC so that it is shown on the web page? Be that as it may, I do not know this way, so the picture is in attachment.

An oldie but goldie from John Cleese
ALERTS TO THREATS IN EUROPE
by John Cleese — British writer, actor and tall person
The English are feeling the pinch in relation to recent events in Syria and have therefore raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved." Soon, though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross." The English have not been "A Bit Cross" since the blitz in 1940 when tea supplies nearly ran out. Terrorists have been re-categorized from "Tiresome" to "A Bloody Nuisance." The last time the British issued a "Bloody Nuisance" warning level was in 1588, when threatened by the Spanish Armada. The Scots have raised their threat level from "Pissed Off" to "Let's get the Bastards." They don't have any other levels. This is the reason they have been used on the front line of the British army for the last 300 years. The French government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from "Run" to "Hide." The only two higher levels in France are "Collaborate" and "Surrender." The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France 's white flag factory, effectively paralyzing the country's military capability. Italy has increased the alert level from "Shout Loudly and Excitedly" to "Elaborate Military Posturing." Two more levels remain: "Ineffective Combat Operations" and "Change Sides." The Germans have increased their alert state from "Disdainful Arrogance" to "Dress in Uniform and Sing Marching Songs." They also have two higher levels: "Invade a Neighbour" and "Lose." Belgians, on the other hand, are all on holiday as usual; the only threat they are worried about is NATO pulling out of Brussels . The Spanish are all excited to see their new submarines ready to deploy. These beautifully designed subs have glass bottoms so the new Spanish navy can get a really good look at the old Spanish navy. Australia, meanwhile, has raised its security level from "No worries" to "She'll be alright, Mate." Two more escalation levels remain: "Crikey! I think we'll need to cancel the barbie this weekend!" and "The barbie is cancelled." So far no situation has ever warranted use of the last final escalation level. A final thought — " Greece is collapsing, the Iranians are getting aggressive, and Rome is in disarray. Welcome back to 430 BC".

A teacher once asked three students to say a sentence that included green, pink, and yellow. The Asian kid says, "I play in a pink dress with my yellow ball outside my green yard." The Mexican kid says, "I have a green, yellow, and pink marker in my backpack." The Indian kid thought for a while and said, "The phone goes Green, Green, Green and i pink up the phone and said "Yellow?!

Yeah, that artwork attachment makes sense. War and Peace was VERY long. I read it in English for college and we had to read so much in a short time, so that I had to read like 20 pages an hour or something. It came to like 2 minutes per page even though my normal reading time is slower. It was hard to speed read so much.

This joke did not make sense to me.
