Three violin manufactures have all done business for years on the same block in the small town of Cremona, Italy.

After years of peaceful co-existence, the Amati family decide to put a sign in their shop window saying:

We make the best violins in Italy.

The Guarneri family soon follow suit and put a sign in their window proclaiming:

We make the best violins in the world.

Finally, the Stradivarius family put a sign out at their shop saying:

We make the best violins on the block.

    How can it have been peaceful co-existence when all of them resorted to violins all the time???

I welcome your comments but be warned: I'm menopausal and as likely to snarl as smile. Wine or Maltesers are an acceptable bribe; or a compliment about my youthful looks and cheery disposition will do in a pinch.
