"Two Frenchmen On Vacation"<br /><br />Two Frenchmen take the ferry to Dover and<br />then the train up to London for a vacation,<br />arriving at Waterloo Station. They look at<br />each other, and one says: "Waterloo Station?<br />What a strange name."<br /><br />They then take the Underground and come out<br />at Trafalgar Square. They look at each other again,<br />and the second one says: "Trafalgar Square?<br />How odd." They then walk around the city and<br />arrive at Agincourt Lane. They look at each once<br />more, and the first one says: "Agincourt Lane?<br />The English must be completely mad. They<br />name all their places after defeats!"<br />---------------------------------------------<br />"An American Visits France"<br /><br />An elder absent minded American arrived at<br />French customs at Paris airport and fumbled<br />for his passport. "You have been to France<br />before Monsieur?", the customs officer asked<br />sarcastically.<br /><br />The ancient Yank admitted that he had been<br />to France before.<br /><br />"Then you should know enough to have your<br />passport ready for inspection," snapped the<br />irate official.<br /><br />The American said that the last time he came<br />to France he did not have to show his passport.<br /><br />"Impossible, old man. You Americans always<br />have to show your passports on arrival in France."<br /><br />The old American gave the Frenchman a long<br />hard look.<br /><br />"I assure you, young man, that when I came<br />ashore on Omaha Beach in Normandy on D<br />Day in 1944, there was no Frenchman on the<br />beach, asking to see my passport!"
