A Story From The Japanese Embassy in USA
I’m not sure this is a true story, but it does makes me laugh. Thanks to my friend who send me this:

*A story from the Japanese Embassy in USA. *Hehe.
Prime Minister Mori was given some Basic English conversation training before he visits Washington and meets with President Bill Clinton. The instructor told Mori " Prime Minister, when you shake hand with President Clinton, please say 'how are you'. Then Mr. Clinton would say, "I am fine, and you?" Now you should say 'me too'. Afterwards we the translators, will do all the work for you."
It looks quite simple, but the truth is ................
When Mori met Clinton, he mistakenly said "Who Are You?"
Mr. Clinton was a bit shocked but still managed to react with humor:
"Well, I am Hilary's husband, ha ha ha..."
Then Mori replied confidently "Me too, ha ha ha.."
Then there was a long silent moment, in the meeting room.
