French Ban Fireworks at Euro Disney

(AP), Paris , March 5, 2003

The French Government announced today that it is imposing a ban on the
use of fireworks at Euro Disney. The decision comes the day after a
nightly fireworks display at the park, located just 30 miles outside of
Paris , caused the soldiers at a nearby French Army garrison to
surrender to a group of Czech tourists.

P.O. Nationality?

A.M. German

P.O. Occupation?

A.M. No, just a holiday this time

Nothing like a good dose of national stereotyping there to start the day eh Kjun :-).......you're be starting on the "There was an irish man, and English man and a Scottish man walked into a bar" or perhaps "two paddy's turned up for work one morning" jokes next.

I'm pleased to see, SG, that you remember the joke I made on 7 August last year and that you so appreciated at the time - even if you have changed the Athens location to Paris for your own purposes.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...

Kjun12, I think the jokes are funny, but they are in bad taste and really cheap shots. Irish is correct, once this gets started it will go on and on and we could end up with jokes that are more hateful then funny. For example, are these jokes about Southerners in America really true or just cheap shots.


Southern Naming Technique
An Arkansas woman is in the welfare office filling out forms. The welfare officer asks her how many children she has? ...
"Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, Leroy, and Leroy." ...
All named Leroy? Why would you name them all Leroy?"
That way, when I wants them all to come in from the yard, I just yells 'LEROY!' , and when I wants them all to come to dinner, I just yells 'LEROY!' " ...
"What if you just want a particular one of them to do something?" ...
"Then I calls him by his last name." ...

Southern Guys and Family Reunions
Q: Why do Southern guys go
to family
reunions?
A: To meet chicks.

Southern Values. There once was a young man named Billy Bob.
There once was a young man named Billy Bob. Now, Billy Bob was a normal Southern boy looking for a nice Southern girl to be his wife. One day, at a mud wrestling match, he met beautiful Tammy Jo. They fell in love and got married. To celebrate their marriage they spent their wedding night at a Super 8 motel in their home town. Tammy Jo was very excited. She had bought some nice lingerie and Billy Bob thought she was absolutely breathtaking.
As they were getting hot and heavy, Tammy Jo said, "Be gentle with me, I'm a virgin." Billy Bob was totally outraged to hear this revelation. He jumped up, dragged Tammy Jo out of the room, drove to her parents' house and left her crying on the doorstep.
Billy Bob immediately went over to his father's house and told him what had just happened. "She said she was a virgin... A VIRGIN!" To which his father replied, "Well son, as I've always told you, if she ain't good enough for her own family, she sure ain't good enough for ours!"

Southern Hospitality
How do you know when you're staying in a classy hotel in the
South?
When you call the front desk and say, "I've gotta leak in my
sink," and the person at the front desk says, "awe shucks
mister, go on ahead." ...

That's it Khor tose. You and that Irishman have started this war and I going to hitch it up another level. I will post queer jokes next. :hello2:

You forgot that I am French!

Oh that's not very nice. I bet they would not dare say something similar about Jews .

You forgot that I am French!

That certainly explain's a lot.

In the South that is either Cajum or pronounced fureench.

You may be right, and if so, I humbly apologise for stealing your joke.
