Aw, c'mon, I got edjicated in Flowrida, I no that Benedict Arnold was a famous

The plans are supposed to be highly secret, but they can be summarized thusly:
  --make sure Canada invades first.
  --surrender immediately.
  --demand war reparations, use the money to revitalize the US economy while using
    the loss of the war as a pretext for dishonoring all outstanding loans.
  --nominally create a new government to facilitate ditching the debt, and print
    new letterhead for everybody.  Ditto money, but nicer looking this time.
  --after 35 years, go back and buy them out with the wealth accumulated as a 
    result of having lost the war.

It oughta work, as long as we can keep them from figuring out what we're up to.

I desperately need a repetoire of jokes about engineers/engineering.

So far all I've got is:
 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
An engineering student was walking across campus when she came across an 
arts student.
"Hey," said the arts student, "like what's that you're carrying in that 
bag under your arm there?"
"Drawing boards," replied the engineering student, "and if you guess how 
many I've got, you can have them both!"
"THREE!" answered the arts student.
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

As you can see, I am in *desperate* need, not only because of the humour 
level of this joke but also because it's so unrealistic - who ever heard of 
an engineering student speaking cordially with an arts student?

I'll be away for the weekend, so please e-mail me your copious lists since 
our damn mail server thingy has a nasty habit of erasing news group postings 
almost as fast as it gets them.

  I'm normally opposed to "fat" jokes per se. however, when asked why

This is a Call For Discussion for the creation of a newgroup called misc.me.too.
The purpose of this group is for people that post "me too" articles on the
net instead of responding via email to things like the "JOKES MAILING LIST".
The group will be moderated as discussion is not allowed.  Only articles
which contain the words "me too" or "add me to the list" will be allowed.

Votes will only be accepted on the net (not via email).  The group will
automatically be crossposted to talk.bizarre, comp.unix.wizards, and 
alt.music.rush as it annoys the hell of those folks when non-topical articles
are crossposted.

If the group doesn't pass perhaps I'll create a me-too mailing list which
will be sent out as a digest to those that are interested in reading 
interesting "me too" and "please add me to the list" articles.

	If you're just wondering, yes. 

	If your interest lies deeper than that, perhaps you should 
   take the time to read some books on military history and find 
   out for yourself what Revolutionary era military technology had 
   developed.  But this has little to do with rec.humor, so I'll 
   redirect followups approriately if you want an answer to your 
   question w/o doing the research yourself.
