Three men flew in an aero plane: An Italian, a Frenchman and a Dutchman. Suddenly the Italian rolled down the window and put his arm outside. After a while he retrieved his hand and waved it in front of the others: "Ahh - we just passed Rome - I smell Pizza".

After a while it was the Frenchman's turn to roll down the window, put his arm outside and smell: "Ahh - We just passed Paris - I smell parfume".

Then at last the turn had come to the Dutchman. He rolled down the window and put his arm outside. After a while he retrieved his hand and waved it in front of the others: Ahh - We just passed Amsterdam.

The others looked puzzled, because they didn't smell anything. The Italian said: "How do you know that - we can't smell anything"

The Dutchman: "You see - I just lost my wrist watch"

I guess the joke is trying to say theft/pickpocketing in Amsterdam is so bad, they manage to steal your watch from your wrist even as you fly over the city. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

International stereotypes are strange animals indeed.

I think that if Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, and Krishna combined all of their superpowers in a huge psycho-kenetic whirlpool of MIRACLE they still couldn't resurrect your sense of humour Skunk [img]tongue.gif[/img] ;)

I object, there are NO thieves in the Netherlands, especially NOT in Amsterdam. :D

I concur, they are not thieves, they are 'borrowers' :D

If you want Dutch jokes that go with the national Dutch stereotype - then the old ones are still good...

<font color="#C4C1CA">Two Dutch girls are riding their old rickety bikes down the back streets of Amsterdam one late afternoon. As it turns closer towards dusk, the increasing darkness of thestreets starts making the two girls a little nervous when one girl leans over to theother and says:
"You know, I've never come this way before."

The other girl nods and says:
"It's the cobblestones."

It was about a month ago when a Dutchman in Amsterdam felt that he needed to confess, so he went to his Priest.
"Forgive me Father, for I have sinned. During WWll, I hid a Jewish man in my attic."
"Well," answered the Priest, "That's no a sin."

"But I made him pay me money for each week he stayed."

"I admit that wasn't good, but you did it for a good cause."

"Oh thank you Father; that eases my mind. Father, I have one more question."

"What is it son."

"Do I have to tell him the war is over?"

"Where did you get that Mountain Bike?"
"Oh I borrowed it of johnny"
"What did he have to say about that?"
"I didn't tell him I was borrowing it, I thought it would save time if I didn't have to go into long explanations"
