Archie,
Here is another I enjoyed reading the other day:
The elderly American gentleman arrived in Paris by plane. At French
Customs, he fumbled for his passport.
"You 'ave been to France before, monsieur?" the customs officer asked
sarcastically. The old gent admitted that he had been to France previously.
"Zen, you should know enough to 'ave your passport ready for
inspection."
The American said, "The last time I was here, I didn't have to show
it."
"Impossible. You Americans alwayz 'ave to show your passports on
arrival in France!"
The American senior gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then he
quietly explained.
"Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day in '44, I couldn't
find any Frenchmen to show it to.
