> It was the first day of school and a new student named Suzuki,
> the son of a Japanese businessman, entered the fourth grade in
> America. The teacher said, "Let's begin by reviewing some
> American history. Who said, "Give me liberty, or give me death?"
>
> She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Suzuki. "Patrick Henry,
> 1775," he said.
>
> "Very good! Who said 'Government of the people, by the people,
> for the people, shall not perish from this earth?'"
>
> Again, no response except from Suzuki. "Abraham Lincoln, 1863,"
> said Suzuki.
>
> The teacher snapped at the class, "Class, you should be ashamed.
> Suzuki, who is new to our country, knows more about its history
> than you do."
>
> She heard a loud whisper: "Screw the Japs." "Who said that?" she
> demanded.
>
> Suzuki put his hand up. "Lee Iacocca, 1982."
>
> At that point, a student in the back said, "I'm gonna puke."
>
> The teacher glares and asks, "All right! Now, who said that?"
>
> Again, Suzuki says, "George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister,
> 1991."
>
> Now furious, another student yells, "Oh yeah? Suck this!"
>
> Suzuki jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the
> teacher, "Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!"
>
> Now with almost a mob hysteria someone said, "You little shit. If
> you say anything else, I'll kill you."
>
> Suzuki frantically yells at the top of his voice, "Gary Condit to
> Chandra Levy 2001."
>
> The teacher fainted, and as the class gathered around the teacher
> on the floor, someone said, "Oh shit, we're in BIG trouble!"
>
> Suzuki said, "Arthur Andersen, 2002."
