Condi: "Yes."
George: "Will you or will you not tell me the name of the new leader of
China?"
Condi: "Yes, sir."
George: "Yassir? Yassir Arafat is in China? I thought he was in the Middle
East."
Condi: "That's correct."
George: "Then who is in China?"
Condi: "Yes, sir."
George: "Yassir is in China?"
Condi: "No, sir."
George: "Then who is?"
Condi: "Yes, sir."
George: "Yassir?"
Condi: "No, sir."
George: "Look, Condi. I need to know the name of the new leader of China.
Get me the Secretary General of the U.N. on the phone."
Condi: "Kofi?"
George: "No, thanks."
Condi: "You want Kofi?"
George: "No."
Condi: "You don't want Kofi."
George: "No. But now that you mention it, I could use a glass of milk.
And then get me the U.N."
Condi: "Yes, sir."
George: "Not Yassir! The guy at the U.N."
Condi: "Kofi?"
George: "Milk! Will you please make the call?"
Condi: "And call who?"
George: "Who is the guy at the U.N.?"
Condi: "Hu is the guy in China."
George: "Will you stay out of China?!"
Condi: "Yes, sir."
George: "And stay out of the Middle East! Just get me the guy at the U.N."
Condi: "Kofi."
George: "All right! With cream and two sugars. Now get on the phone."
Condi picks up the phone.
Condi: "Rice, here."
George: "Rice? Good idea. And a couple of egg rolls, too. Maybe we should
send some to the guy in China. And the Middle East. Can you get Chinese food
in the Middle East?"
