Funny thing happened at a local "ChinaTown" restaurant here in Provo,
Utah...our fortune cookies were all in SPANISH!! What a riot. Fortunately
(PI), we had someone who spoke Spanish with us. We joked about whether or not
the owners/servers knew that they even had Spanish fortune cookies (the food
is terrifically authentic and the server had a very hard time with English).
Which reminds me of a great joke about a guy who drops by his favorite New
York deli to find a new, Chinese waiter. To his amazement, the waiter takes
his order in flawless Yiddish. The guy pulls the owner aside to ask where he
found the Yiddish-fluent, Chinese waiter. "Shhh," says the owner, "he thinks
I'm teaching him English."
