IN A TRAIN FROM LONDON TO MANCHESTER, AN AMERICAN WAS BERATING THE
ENGLISHMAN SITTING ACROSS FROM HIM IN THE COMPARTMENT. "THE
TROUBLE WITH YOU ENGLISH IS THAT YOU ARE TOO STUFFY. YOU SET
YOURSELVES APART TOO MUCH. YOU THINK YOUR STIFF UPPER LIP MAKES
YOU ABOVE THE REST OF US. LOOK AT ME... I'M ME! I HAVE A
LITTLE ITALIAN IN ME, A BIT OF GREEK BLOOD, A LITTLE IRISH AND
SOME SPANISH BLOOD. WHAT DO YOU SAY TO THAT?"
THE ENGLISHMAN LOWERED HIS NEWSPAPER, LOOKed OVER HIS GLASSES
AND REPLIED,
"HOW VERY SPORTING OF YOUR MOTHER!"
Thanks Ralph
