Corny Jokes - the more the merrier

[Ryokan]

Some years ago a small rural town in Spain twinned with a town in Greece.
The Greek mayor visited the Spanish town and when he saw the palatial mansion belonging to the Spanish mayor, he wondered aloud how on earth he could afford such a place.

The Spanish Mayor replied - ‘You see that bridge over there? The EU gave us a grant to construct a two lane bridge, but by building a single lane bridge with traffic lights at either end, I could build this'.

The following year the Spaniard visited the Greek town and was amazed at the Greek mayor's house - marble floors, gold fixtures, it was marvellous.

When he asked how he’d managed to build this incredible house, the Greek mayor replied - ‘You see that bridge over there?’

The Spanish Mayor replied: ‘No.’

* Totally random to this thread, but speaking of cultural (geo-social) barriers and idiotic misshaps due to them? If you haven't read K. J. Parker aka Tom Holt, by all means rectify promptly. Truly, you'll be laughing your hairy behind off.
