Default The Frogs

An American is having breakfast, in Paris, one morning (coffee, croissants, bread, butter and jam) when a Frenchman, chewing bubble-gum, sits down next to him. The American ignores the Frenchman who, nevertheless, starts a conversation.

Frenchman: "You American folk eat the whole bread??"

American (in a bad mood): "Of course."

Frenchman: (after blowing a huge bubble) "We don't. In France, we only eat what's inside. The crusts we collect in a container, recycle it, transform them into croissants and sell them to the states."

The Frenchman has a smirk on his face. The American listens in silence.

The Frenchman persists: "Do you eat jelly with the bread??"

American: "Of Course."

Frenchman: (cracking his bubble-gum between his teeth and chuckling). "We don't. In France we eat fresh fruit for breakfast, then we put all the peels, seeds, and leftovers in containers, recycle them, transform them into jam, and sell the jam to the states."

After a moment of silence, The American then asks: "Do you have sex in France?"

Frenchman: "Why of course we do", he says with a big smirk.

American: "And what do you do with the condoms once you've used them?"

Frenchman: "We throw them away, of course."

American: "We don't. In America, we put them in a container, recycle them, melt them down into bubble-gum, and sell them to France."

It's too bad so many people here have no sense of humor. Nice joke, Zeno. I'll try to remember it.

I think they're down to burning only 92 cars per day around this time. This is progress.

By the way, Zeno, you might enjoy this column (it mentions with relish the burning of French cars), or some other columns on his site.

The French are a joke on themselves but they just don't realize it.

There are. The joke was sent to me by a friend via e-mail. I admit its a bit average but why fuss about it. I felt like sharing it. Plus, it was a good way to introduce another jab at the French Failure. A bigger and better joke.
