A Tale of Two Malaysians... and a Kid

Aug 16, 2004

RAY: There are two Malaysians standing on the street corner.

TOM: I can see it now. "Murray... So, Mario..." By the way, are they in
Kuala Lumpur?

RAY: Sure. They're having a conversation. One of them is the father of the other's son. My question is, how could this be?
Answer: 
TOM: If you didn't get this one, then you really are a male chauvinist pig.

RAY: Exactly. Because the assumption would be that the two Malaysians are males, but in fact one is the father and one is the mother.

TOM: If you're saying "Doh!" right now, you've got a long way to come before you become a sensitive guy.

RAY: Yes, indeed. Who's our winner this week?

TOM: The winner is David Blumquist from Littleton, Colorado.
