Independence Day

Pearl, "Where have you brought me to now".
Pickle "We are in Argentina, Buenos Aires to be exact"
Pearl, "Oh, lets be exact, but exactly where?"
Pickle' "We are in the Plaza De Mayo but why the locals should erect a statue to a sandwich spread is beyond me.
Pearl, "What?"
Pickle,"Mayo, short for Mayonnaise"
Pearl "Idiot, Mayo is Spanish for May, the month, that's why the monument in the square celebrates Argentina's independence from Spain on 25 Mayo 1810.
Pickle "Are you sure?"
Pearl "Of course I'm sure, look it it up in Wikipedia".
