An American arrives in Paris and takes a taxi. The taxi passes in front of the triumphal arch, the tourist then asks:
- What is that ?
- This is our triumphal arch.
- How long did you take to build that?
- Almost 30 years old I think ...
- At us in Texas it takes 3 days!
The taxi passes Notre-Dame:
- What is that?
- It's Notre-Dame, the cathedral of Paris.
- How long did you take to build that?
- Oh, almost a century, no doubt.
- At home, in Texas, 6 days.
The driver begins to have heated ears.
They pass in front of the Eiffel Tower:
- What is that ?
- That? I do not know. It was not here this morning!
