The ragged pieces of ideas and thoughts of my attempt to live a life as a contemporary monastic in the urban city of Singapore..
It's always a treat to laugh. Here's one i got from a friend. It has a local flavour with a bit of racist twist but don't take it too seriously. Just celebrate our differences. Realise I haven't been laughing for a while. Just invited all the guys from the office for lunch today. Hopefully we can laugh a lot.
WHO SANK THE TITANIC?
"Spielberg, You Sank the Titanic!"
A Chinese man walked into a bar in America late one night and he saw Steven Spielberg.
As he was a great fan of his movies, he rushed over to him, and asked for his autograph. Instead, Spielberg gave him a slap and said, "You Chinese people bombed our Pearl Harbor, get outta here."
The astonished Chinese man replied, "It was not the Chinese who bombed your Pearl Harbor, it was the Japanese". "Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, you're all the same," replied Spielberg.
In return, the Chinese man gave Spielberg a slap and said, "You sank the Titanic, my forefathers were on that ship."
Shocked, Spielberg replied, "It was the iceberg that sank the ship, not me."
The Chinese man, replied, "Iceberg, Carlsberg, Spielberg you're all the same."
