Seasons Of The Year

By xayaadry， sacramento， CA

The Christmas kisses right under the mistletoe，

a love that will grow.

American Dream

An American attorney had just finished a guest lecture at a law school in Italy when an Italian lawyer approached him and asked. "Is it true that a person can fall down on a sidewalk in your country and then sue the landowners for lots of money？"

Told that it was true， the lawyer turned to his partners and started speaking rapidly in Italian. When they stopped， the American attorney asked if they wanted to go to America to practice law.

"No， no. " one replied，"We want to go to America and fall down on sidewalks."

First Man

A small boy was asked， "Who was the first man？" He promptly replied， "George Washington."

"How do you make out that George Washington was the first man？"

"He was first in war， first in peace， and first in the hearts of his countrymen."

When his brother reminded him of Adam， the boy replied unhappily， "Oh， I didnt think you were counting foreigners."

第一個男人

有人問一個小男孩：“第一個男人是誰？”他立即回答說：“喬治·華盛頓。”

“你怎么知道喬治·華盛頓是第一個男人呢？”

“因為他是戰(zhàn)時第一，和時第一，國人心中第一。”

當(dāng)哥哥提醒他是“亞當(dāng)”時，他很不高興地說：“哦，我沒有想到你們把外國人也算在內(nèi)了。”

圣誕節(jié)，

站在槲寄生（注：一種植物）下，

親吻，

愛就會生長。

一年四季

一位美國律師剛結(jié)束他在意大利一所法律學(xué)校的客座演講，就有一位意大利律師走近他：“聽說在你們國家，一個人跌倒在人行道上，他就會起訴這塊地的所有者，對方必須賠償很多錢，這是真的嗎？”

得知這是真的后，意大利律師轉(zhuǎn)向他的同行，用意大利語快速談?wù)撈饋怼．?dāng)他們停下后，美國律師問他們是否想去美國做法律工作。

“不！不！”其中一位意大利律師回答道，“我們想在美國人行道上跌一跤。”
