French Joke (translated) A Frenchman, an American, and an Arab are on a hot air balloon. The hot air ballon wouldn't lift-off as there was too much weight, so the three friends agree on throwing off anything that is plentiful in their respective countries. The rich American goes forth and throws away piles on piles of dollars, stating that ""There are too many in my country"". The Arab goes next and throws off tons of gold, his gold watch, bars, etc. stating that ""There is too much of it in my country!"" Next goes the Frenchman... He pushes the Arab off stating that ""There are too many sulking in the streets of my country!"" The hot air balloon then wafts through the air majestically.
