    This joke is one of my favorites.  The version I heard said:

	In heaven:
	    The English are the police,
	    The Germans are the mechanics,
	    The Swiss are the administrators,
	    The French are the lovers,
	    The Italians are the cooks.

	In hell:
	    The English are the cooks,
	    The French are the administrators,
	    The Swiss are the lovers,
	    The Italians are the mechanics,
	    The Germans are the police!
