NOTE: This post in no way is to offend any Japanese,
but rather it comes from my files; and the credit
goes to none other than the famous deceased
Comedian himself - Sammy Davis, Jr.
There was a Japanese CEO who was
taken to the Chicago O'Hara Airport
and he had never been to the United
States before, so all of this was all
totally new to him! While he spoke
English exceptionally well, but broken.
He hailed the taxi, to which rumbled
a Ford. And he told the Taxi Driver,
To Hotel, Down there, 8 blocks away.
While he sat in back seat in total awe.
He became so excited:
"OH look, a Honda! Very Fast! Made
in Japan!" he cried out gleefully. The
Taxi Driver looked in the rear mirror
and ignored him.
Zoomed by another car, he cried out
with much delight, "Oh Look! A
Toyota! Very Fast! Made in Japan!"
The Taxi Driver once again looked a
bit peeved in the rear-view mirror,
and ignored him and drove to the
destination.
Then within seconds nearly side
swiping the Ford Taxi, the Japanese
man couldn't contain his excitement,
cried out, "Oh look, an old Nissan!
Very Fast! Made in Japan!" The Taxi
Driver just grumbled and was
getting quite annoyed.
Right at the intersection and next
to them, side by side - two brand new
Mitsubishis; and he was in heaven!
the Taxi Driver closed his eyes, and
he was so giddy and excited and tap-
ped him on his shoulder to get his
attention, and said, " Mistsubishi,
Made in Japan! Very Fast! " The Taxi
Driver was trying very hard to sustain
himself.
Once he arrived to the Hotel, the
Japanese thanked him and asked him
how much owe I you? Taxi Driver
without missing a beat responded,
"$140"
Japanese man looked puzzled and
inquired, "Why $140 for short trip it
was?"
Taxi Driver never missed a beat:
" TAXI METER. MADE IN JAPAN.
VERY FAST! "
:roflmao:
