Health advice for expats (joke)

The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British.
On the other hand, the French eat a lot of fat and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British.
The Japanese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British.
The French and Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British.

Conclusion:
Eat & drink what you like. It's speaking English that kills you.

Hah! I love it. :D Not sure speaking the native language helps either, if we do it w/ a twang :)
