European Heaven or hell Remove this text

Something I read the other day at work that I thought was rather humerous:

If Europe was Heaven:
The Police would be Brittish.
The Mechanics would be Italian.
The Food would be French.
And it would be organised by the Germans.

If Europe was Hell:
The Police would be German.
The Mechanics would be French.
The Food would be Brittish
And it would be organised by the Italians.

My brother once owned a Fiat. You do not want the Italians as the mechanics.

How about:
The Italians as the Police
The Germans as the Mechanics
The Food would be French
And it would be organized by the British

Maybe like this:

If Europe was Heaven:
The Beer would be German.
The Wine would be French.
The Food would be Italian.
And it would be organised by the British.

If Europe was Hell:
The Police would be evil Finns.
The Mechanics would be evil Finns.
The Food would be evil Finnish.
And it would be organised by the evil Finns.

ouch! thats a tad un-patriotic.

your not a terrorist are you

British mechanics are worse - look what happend to our Beagle space project, atleast the americans can actualy land their objects on other planetary bodies And with the death of Rover we no longer make our own cars

oh and our food must be equally as bad as American food? Our Police are nice though.....well they were, we'll have to see what happens over the next 6months or so

The Italians are the lovers
The Germans run everything

It's pretty pathetic that you have to drive away attention from dissing your country by dissing a country that doesn't exist.

Yet it's still lot more realistic!

Hell: You can't guess what the answer here is, thus you have brain damaged yourself into oblivion, which is your personal hell.

If Europe was Hell:

The cooks would be German
The police would be French
The food would be British
The Mechanics Italian
And everything organized by the EU...

I think it might be better to have the Germans cooking British food than actually having the British do it.

Why? Britain has the best chefs in the world.

quote:
World’s Top 50 Restaurants 2005

Of the top 50, 14 of the restaurants are in Britain. According to Restaurant Magazine, “There will be some who feel this year’s list is too London-centric, with 26 percent of the list given over to restaurants in and around the English capital.”

A) That doesn't say anything as to the nationality of the cooks.
B) It doesn't say what type of cuisine they cook (I guarantee it isn't traditional British food).
C) That was meant as snark.
