What are their nationalities? <BR> <BR>The man exiting is Finnish, the man approaching is Russian, and the man in the house--Himalyan! <BR> <BR>BC

Some people think puns take humor Oslo as it can go. But I like a pun Venice a good one. They're hard to find, but if Ukraine your neck you can see a few. You can even invent your own--Izmir-ly a matter of practice. Czech it out! You can even pun bilingually, which is a good means of Dublin the fun. And Geneva know when inspiration will strike.

As an old farmboy I find these udderly ridiculous.

Not exactly a pun, but you guys reminded me of this. Eons ago when I was an "assistante d'anglais" in Albi a bit northeast of Toulouse, several of us had gone to the local night club to dance. (This was PRE-disco days!) At one point they were playing a James Brown record in which he repeated several times the phrase, "Well, I'll be!" I couldn't understand why, each time he said that phrase, the whole room would break into cheers... until I finally figured out that to the French ear "I'll be" sounded like "Albi"!
