@OmSigDAVID,
Honestly, David, one of the funniest place to visit -if you know the culture- is Cuba, and the funniest people to talk with are the Cubans.
They're always laughing at themselves, at their government and at their own cowardice for not toppling it.
For them, life is often taken as a big joke.
It has to. The joke is on them.

A visitor arrives to a city in ruins. Hardly a stone over a stone.
In the middle of the disaster, a couple of men are trying to make fire with a couple of sticks.
"I tell you", says one of them, "if the government doesn't give us firemaking sticks on the rationing card next month, we'll make a revolution".
