The cheese shop
« on: May 30, 2012, 04:51:25 PM »
A guy walked into a bank and asked to see the manager.

Upon meeting the bank manager, the guy explained he wanted to arrange a business loan.

"Ah" said the banker "And what line of business are you in?"

"I develop and manufacture new varieties of cheese and I have such a good selection now that I want to open a cheese shop"

"Excellent idea" said the bank manager. "Where are you thinking of opening this shop?"

The guy pulls out some papers and says "here" pointing to a map of Paris.

"Hmm" says the banker "this is a problem. France is renowned for cheese. I think you may have problems making money there. Its not a good risk for the bank"

"Well my second choice is here" says the guy, pointing this time to a map of Amsterdam.

"No, no, no" says the banker "The Netherlands is one of the world's greatest cheese manufacturers. You won't sell cheese there"

"Well this is the only other place" says the guy, this time pointing to a map of Israel.

"That's more like it" said the bank manager "I feel certain that the bank can lend you money to open a cheese shop in Israel. What will be the name of the shop?"

And the guy replies: "Cheeses of Nazareth"
