A Frenchman, an Italian and a German
are caught drinking alcohol in an Arab country. They are then sentenced to 50 lashes each. Since they are foreigners, they each have one wish. The Frenchman: ?Tie a pillow on my back.? The pillow can withstand about 15 hits before it breaks. The Italian saw it and said ?tie two pillows on my back?. But they can only withstand 30 hits. Since Germany organized such a wonderful World Cup, the German can express two wishes: "I want 100 lashes!" Everyone is surprised, but - it is his will. And the second wish? "Tie the Italian on my back"
