LONGEVITY

A neat joke from China Law Blog's post on the country's fascination with all things Jewish:

So a Chinese guy and a Jewish guy were talking about their histories and their cultures. The Chinese guy says Chinese culture is more than 3,000 years old and he lists some of its achievements. The Jewish guy acknowledges China's rich history and then says Jewish culture is more than 5,000 years. The Chinese guy then interjects:

"No way, what did you eat for the first 2,000 years?"

Very funny. Some of the other sterotypes are a lot more dubious.
