Amber’s Turn at “Funny Camp”

December 14, 2015 by szachik@pvs.org Leave a Comment

Jim Wang instituted “Funny Camp”–a pause in our busy days . . . for humor, a joke, a funny story. Here is our “Funny Camp” Guest Host Amber and her take on “Funny Camp.”

IMG_2058Two ladies who didn’t yet speak English well came to America. They stayed at a motel during their trip. Then, one night, a rat appeared in their room. They freaked out, but they were too scared to get close to the rat and couldn’t think up any way to make it disappear. So they decided to call the front desk for help. Unfortunately, they didn’t know how to say the word “rat” in English. This ultimately leads to the following conversation when they talked with the motel staff at the front desk:
Front desk: “Hello, this is front desk. How may I help you?”
Guests: “Hi, do you know Tom and Jerry? Jerry is here!”
