And another thing
Same bald Portuguese loon told me this one about himself.

Wants to go to the barber to book an appointment, but spacktardily wanders into the funeral director next door.

Completely oblivious to all the gravestones/coffins/whatever they have in there, he walks straight up to the counter and asks the immortal question:

"Can I book an appointment please?"

Final one from the little man; we're sitting around doing the crossword. Girlfriend reads out 'Holes in the skin' clue. Naturally, I say 'pores.' Carlos, with slightly puzzled expression:

"I thought only dogs and cats had those...."

I swear he's the bastard lovechild of Manuel from Fawlty Towers and the 'Scorchio' girl from The Fast Show.

Big up all the American ignorance ones - some of those just defy belief.
