Hapiness... is a warm gun

When Charles deGaulle decided to retire from public life, the British ambassador and his wife threw a gala dinner party in his honor.

At the dinner table, the Ambassador's wife was talking with Madame de Gaulle:
- 'Your husband has been such a prominent public figure, such a presence on the French and international scene for so many years! How quiet retirement will seem in comparison. What are you most looking forward to in these retirement years?'
- 'A penis,' replied Madame deGaulle.
A huge hush fell over the table. Everyone heard her answer...
and no one knew what to say next.
Le Grand Charles leaned over to his wife and said:
'Ma cherie, I believe ze English pronounce zat word, 'appiness!''
