St Peter decides he wants a new coat of paint on the Pearly Gates. He asks an Albanian for a quote. The man says €600: €300 for the materials and €300 for my labour.

He gets a second quote from a German who says €900: €300 for the materials, €300 for my labour and €300 for the tax I have to pay on it.

He then asks a Greek, who says €3,000.

"Why so much?" St Peter asks in horror.

The Greek replies, "Listen, pal, there's €1,000 for you, €1,000 for me, €300 for the materials, €300 to get the Germans to look the other way, and €400 to hire an Albanian to do the work".

A PUB in the popular Protaras area in Famagusta was burnt down in the early hours yesterday, damaging an adjacent building that happened to be empty at the time, police said.
Two shops that were next to the pub were also burnt, with the damage calculated to thousands of euros, Famagusta police spokesman George Economou said.
The pub itself was insured

so it starts.......... noooo:

The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.

Written statement by the President of the Republic, Mr Nicos Anastasiades
02/04/2013



It is with sadness that I accepted today the resignation of the Minister of Finance, Mr Michalis Sarris. I want to thank Mr Sarris for his valuable services during the course of the difficult negotiations with the Troika. The negotiations were concluded today with significant successes regarding the aims that were pursued.
