A very smart exchange student

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 Little Hodaiki a bright

foreign exchange student from Japan , who had his hand up: 'Patrick

Henry, 1775', he said.



'Very good!'



Who said, 'Government of the People, by the People, for the People,

shall not perish from the Earth?'



Again, no response except from Little Hodaiki: 'Abraham Lincoln, 1863'.



'Excellent!' said the teacher continuing, 'let's try one a bit more

difficult...'



Who said, 'Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can

do for your country?'



Once again, Hodaiki's was the only hand in the air and he said: 'John

F. Kennedy, 1961'.



The teacher snapped at the class, 'Class, you should be ashamed of

yourselves, Little Hodaiki isn't from this country and he knows more

about our history than you do.'



She heard a loud whisper: 'F . . . k the Japs,'



'Who said that? I want to know right now!' she angrily demanded.



Little Hodaiki put his hand up, 'General MacArthur, 1945.'



At that point, a student in the back said, 'I'm gonna puke.'



The teacher glared around and asks, 'All right! Now who said that!?'



Again, Little Hodaiki said, 'George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991.'



Now furious, another student yelled, 'Oh yeah? Suck this!'



Little Hodaiki jumped out of his chair waving his hand and shouted to

the teacher, 'Bill Clinton to Monica Lewinsky 1997!'



Now with almost mob hysteria someone said, 'You little crap.

If you say anything else, I'll kill you.'



Little Hodaiki frantically yelled at the top of his voice, "Michael

Jackson to the child witness testifying against him, 2004.'



The teacher fainted.



As the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said,

"Oh crap, we're *****!"



Little Hodaiki said quietly, "Bob Diamond, Barclays Bank, 2012."

And finally some justice may come to bankers who hold the world to ransom and split the booty like pirates.

Nice one Dave
