Greece v Italy

[Tomliner]

A Greek and an Italian were talking one day, discussing who had the superior culture.

Over coffee, the Greek says:- "Well, we built the Parthenon."

The Italian replies -"We built the Coliseum."

The Greek retorts "We Greeks gave birth to mathematics."

The Italian, nodding, says: "But we built the Roman Empire."

And so on and so on until the Greek comes up with what he thinks will end the discussion.

With a flourish of finality he says: "We invented sex!"

The Italian replies: "That is true, but it was the Italians who included women."

I'd better not show that to my gay Greek friend. He's in Greece right now for a local hetero wedding BTW.

I Like your new tag line Graham. Have you listened to "Anthem" by Leonard Cohen? (contains a very quotable line)

Good one.

I'll tell it to my neighbour Silvio, I hear he could be at home more soon. I wonder if he'll invite me to one of his parties.

The Greek island of Mykonos is known as Ladyboy Island, and of course Lesbos started something.
