I spoke to a guy once who had been in the Air Force and worked as crew on a what amounted to a military Lear Jet. Occasionally they would set the plane up at various air shows and base open houses, give quick tours of the plane to civilians, and hand out recruiting literature.
At almost every show some wide-eyed little kid would point at the external wing tanks and ask, "are those bombs?"
The crewman would scowl at the kid for a moment, then say in his best Official Voice, "I can neither confirm nor deny that this aircraft has ever been equipped with nuclear weapons."
OK, that's funnier than shit. Now my co-workers are sure that I'm unhinged. ("He's just sitting in his office laughing with NOBODY! We should all move to the bulletproof room with the really good lock on the door now")
Laughed so hard I hurt myself. My favorite: ATF - Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. Rednecks with a license to kill. Never, ever, ever ask for their help on anything.

That's long, but funny.
Agreed, long but funny.
But could you please confirm or deny that you cannot confirm or deny anything?
I'm sorry, Jake. I can neither confirm nor deny that.

Looks remarkably like Appendix R from the Master Agreement between a global computer services corp and a major accounting firm.
Hilarious! (The key to good humor is a basis of truth.)
