The joke:
--------------
There was an Asian lady married to an English gentleman and they lived in London. The poor lady was not very proficient in English,but managed to communicate with her husband.

The real problem arose whenever she had to shop for groceries. One day, she went to the butcher and wanted to buy pork legs. She didn't know how to put forward her request, and in desperation,she lifted up her skirt to show her thighs. The butcher got the message and the lady went home with pork legs.

The next day, she needed to get chicken breasts. Again, she didn't know how to say, and so she unbuttoned her blouse to show the butcher what she wanted. The lady got what she wanted.

The third day, the poor lady needed to buy some bananas. So she brought her husband to the store..............

What did she do?
(please scroll page down).
















What were you thinking? ? HellOOOOOOOOOOOO,
Her husband speaks English....
Now get back to work.............

--------------
a friend of mine sent me this joke yesterday, I laughed... this morning, he told me that he was talking about the same joke with his wife on dinner table last night, his wife was all smiling, sighing and head-shaking... all of a sudden, their lovely daughter shouted to them: I know it, this lady's husband knows English and he can speak to the butcher... after telling all this, my friend added:  an innocent inside is the innocent indeed... I think he might be darn right on this ---- & just wondering while we are gaining the power/wisdom & are unnoticeably getting used to relying on thinking, speculating, guessing, or even fatasizing ... to reach our conclusion/judgment as we live on and grow 'older', are we also at the same time inevitably & somewhat losing some of our basic capabilities to simply see the very essence of things?---just wondering.

nope, we didn't just buy one-way tickets, which is why u hear people say "that little boy/girl in u/ur heart."

goodies like candy "hu2 lu2," sesame balls are definitely worth it.

when u said "back into the box"---reminded me of 13 going on 30. :P

good point. & also guess there got to be some difference between once being outside the box and stepping outside the box after being inside----yeah, sometimes the 'same thing' actually is not the same... & luckily, we didnot buy one-way tickets, or did we? altho 'trapped' inside, if we like and want, we could always take a peek at the outside, or even come out for a casual and lazy walk to check out what are those tasty goodies on that street-vender's cart... then of course, donot forget to sneak back into the box----lol.

when we're told to think outside the box, we don't realize we were actually "outside the box" when we were younger...
