An American arrives in Paris and takes a taxi. The taxi passes in front of the Arc de Triomphe, the tourist then asks: - What is that? - This is our triumphal arch. - How long did it take you to build this? - Almost 30 years I think... - With us in Texas, it takes 3 days!
The taxi passes in front of Notre-Dame: - What is that? - This is Notre-Dame, the cathedral of Paris. - How long did it take you to build this? - Oh, almost a century, no doubt. - With us, in Texas, 6 days.
The driver begins to get upset with the tourist. They pass in front of the Eiffel Tower: - What is that?
- That ? I do not know. It wasn't there this morning!
