One day, Jill's husband came home from the office and found her sobbing convulsively.

"I feel terrible," she told him. "I was pressing your suit and I burned a big hole in the seat of your trousers."

"Forget it," consoled her husband. "Remember that I bought an extra pair of pants for that suit."

"Yes, and it's lucky for you that you did," said Jill, drying her eyes. "I used them to patch the hole."

The executive was interviewing a young person with fair hair for a position in his company. He wanted to find out something about her personality so he asked, "If you could have a conversation with any person, living or dead, who would that be?"

The fair-haired person quickly responded, "The living one."

Back in the days of George W Bush's presidency, Donald Rumsfeld, then secretary of state for defence, came into the oval office. "Mr President I am afraid I have some very bad news. Yesterday three Brazilian troops died supporting our soldiers in action."

"My God no." said George, slumping into his chair. For a full minute he sat there with his head in his hands before turning to Rumsfeld and asking, "Tell me, exactly how many is a Brazilian?"

Some years ago a small rural town in Spain twinned with a similar town in Greece.
The mayor of the Greek town visited the Spanish town. When he saw the palatial mansion belonging to the Spanish mayor, he wondered aloud how on earth he could afford such a house.
The Spaniard 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 place.’
The following year the Spaniard visited the Greek town. He was simply amazed at the Greek mayor's house: gold taps, marble floors, diamond doorknobs, it was marvellous.
When he asked how he’d raised the money to build this incredible house, the Greek mayor said:‘You see that bridge over there?’
The Spaniard replied:‘No.’


As of this week, all new Euros are to be printed on Greece-proof paper.

Syria has appealed for international assistance today, after a boatload of 500 Greeks arrived seeking a better life.


What are the first three letters of the Greek alphabet?
I.O.U.


I'm investing in a new currency...the George Foreman Euro.
Same as the other Euro, but no Greece.


Alex Tsipras has said that Greece will "Bounce Back".
Just like it's cheques.


My son wanted to know what it was like to live in Greece, so I took his pocket money from him.

Husband and Wife were out shopping in a bust pre-xmas shopping center, after a while the wife noticed that her husband had gone awol

After a while she started to worry and sent him a text "WHERE r u?"

A few moments later he replied...

"Do you remember the jewelers we went into just after we first met, the one with the very expensive necklace we couldn't possible afford then but I promised that one day I would get it for you?"

Feeling more than a little emotional she replied "Yes darling, I remember it like it was yesterday xxxx"

The reply came back "Well, I'm in the pub next door to it"

A Hotel guest calls the Front desk and the clerk answers, "May I help you?"
 
The man says, "Yes, I'm in room 858. You need to send someone to
my room immediately. I'm having an argument with my wife and she says she's
going to jump out of the window."
 
The desk clerk says, "I'm sorry sir, but that's a personal matter."
 
The man replies, "Listen you idiot. The window won't open.........
 
and that's a maintenance matter."

A tourist in Vienna is going through a graveyard and all of a sudden he hears music.
No one is around, so he starts searching for the source.

He finally locates the origin and finds it is coming from a grave with a headstone that reads: "Ludwig van Beethoven, 1770- 1827".
Then he realizes that the music is Beethoven's Ninth Symphony and it is being played backward!

Puzzled, he leaves the graveyard and persuades a friend to return with him.

By the time they arrive back at the grave, the music has changed.
This time it is the Seventh Symphony, but like the previous piece, it is being played backwards.

Curious, the men agree to consult a music scholar.
When they return with the expert, the Fifth Symphony is playing, again backwards.

The expert notices that the symphonies are being played in the reverse order in which they were composed,
the 9th, then the 7th, then the 5th.

By the next day the word has spread, and a crowd has gathered around the grave.
They are all listening to the Second Symphony being played backward.
Just then the graveyard's caretaker ambles up to the group.

Someone in the group asks him if he has an explanation for the music.

"I would have thought it was obvious," the caretaker says.
"He's decomposing!"
