Heard an old joke...

I heard an old joke the other day.  It goes something like this:

In the East Kingdom, when the King tells you to dig a trench, you respond,
"Yes Your Majesty," and start digging.

In the Middle Kingdom, when the King tells you to dig a trench, you
respond, "Yes Your Majesty," but it might take six months for you to find a
shovel.

In the interest of continuing studies in inter-kingdom anthropology (not to
mention livening up a dead list), are there any takes out there on the
Atlantian response?
