Viennese Jokes / Recent Jokes
A shy bachelor was posted as ambassador to Peru. At a reception and dance given by him in the embassy, he spent more time with his whisky bottle than with his guests.
Emboldened by the intake of spirits he decided to ask what appeared to him his most important lady guest, to dance a Viennese waltz with him. The guest turned down the request with the following words:' There are three reasons why I will not dance with you. The first is that you have obviously had too much to drink. The second is that the orchestra is not playing a Viennese waltz - it is playing the Peruvian national anthem. And thirdly, I am the Cardinal Archbishop of Buenos Aires.'
