CHINESE NAME
While visiting San Fransisco, a tourist is walking through Chinatown. He is fascinated with all the Chinese restaurants, the Chinese shops, the Chinese signs and banners on the buildings. He is having the best time just walking and looking. He turns a corner and sees a building with a sign "Sven Olafsen's Laundry". "Sven Olafsen?", he thinks. "How in the world does that fit in here?". So, he walks into the shop and sees an old Chinese gentleman sitting in the corner. The visitor asks, "How in the world did this place get a name like Sven Olafsen's Laundry?". The old man answers "Is name of owner." The visitor asks, "Who's the owner?". I am here", answers the old man. "You? How did you ever get a name like Sven Olafsen?" The old man replies, "Many years ago when I come to this country, I was standing in line at Documentation Center. Man in front of me was big blonde Swede". The lady on the desk look at him and go "What your name?" He say, Sven Olafsen". She look at me... "What your name?". I said, "Sam Ting (Same thing)." |
