french soldiers who went to help the americans during the american revolution often found that their hosts had strange ideas about them. one day, the chevalier de pontgibaud entered the house of a farmer upon whom he was billeted. the farmer said, "i'm very glad to have a frenchman in the house. you see the barber lives a long way off so you'll be able to shave me." "but i can't even shave myself," de pontgibaud replied. "that's very odd," said the farmer. "i was told that all frenchmen were barbers."
soon afterwards the farmer served him some beef, and said, "you're lucky to be able to come over to america and get good beef to eat." when the frenchman assured him that they had beef in france and excellent beef too, the american responded, "that's impossible, or you wouldn't be so thin."
