The president of China, Hu Jintao, visited Connecticut today. Last night, somewhere on a highway in the middle of the state, four of us talked briefly about some of the key security measures that were to accompany his stay.
"Oh, that's right. Hu is coming," said F. from the back seat absentmindedly.
In an unspoken shared appreciation of bad jokes, Steve and I replied at once,
"The president of China."

your mother eat chicken? that's pretty random. it sounds like "ni mama chee gee". the chee sound is a bit tricky.
