A Texan goes to Toronto for a vacation.
He grabs a cab at the airport and says he’s going to The Royal York Hotel.
The Cabby heads downtown on his way he passes Queens Park.
“What’s that?” says the Texan.
“Oh! That’s Queens Park,” says the Cabby. It’s our Provincial Government; it’s like your State Government.
Those buildings are almost 200 years old and they are quite big.”
“Oh! We have buildings much older than that and at least twice as large,” says the Texan.
They continue along and past First Canadian Place.
“Holy cow,” says the Texan, “What’s that?”
“Why that’s First Canadian Place, it’s the biggest office complex in the country,” says the Cabby, “it took almost 4 years to build.”
“Really,” says the Texan, “Why in Houston they have buildings twice that big, and built in less than 1/2 the time.”
They continue on the way, the cabby a little miffed at the bragging, when they drive past the CN Tower.
Now the Texan has his head out the window looking up at the 1850′ tower and rotating restaurant at 1300.
“Holy Crap!” says the Texan
“What in God’s name is that? How long did it take to build that!”
The Cabby nonchalantly glances out the window and says,
“Heck if I know, it wasn’t there yesterday!”
A Texan Farmer Goes To Australia
A Texan farmer is on vacation in Australia.
There he meets an Australian farmer and talks.
The Australian shows off his large wheat field and the Texan says, “Oh! We have wheat fields that are at least twice as large”.
Then they walk around the ranch for a bit and the Australian shows off his herd of cattle.
The Texan farmer immediately said, “We have longhorns that are at least twice as large as your cows.”
The conversation is now almost at a standstill when the Texan sees a herd of kangaroos hopping through the field.
He asked, “And what are those”?
The Australian responds with an incredulous look, “Don’t you have any grasshoppers in Texas?”
Hope this joke makes you smile! Have a nice day!!!
