Jack Chambers has sent another joke. Haven't heard from him for a while. Hope there are more to come.
Mohammed was fresh to the area. He entered his brand new classroom. “Hello there. And what's your name?” asked the teacher.
“Mohammed,” answered the kid.
“We're in Australia and there is no ‘Mohammed’. How about we change it to fit in. From now on your name will be ‘Bruce’,” said the teacher.
In the evening, Mohammed returned home. “How was your day, Mohammed?” asked his mother.
“My name is not 'Mohammed'. I am an Australian and now my name is 'Bruce'.” he said proudly.
“Ah, are you ashamed of your name, are you trying to disown your parents, your heritage, your religion?" She said. "Shame on you.” And she beat him. Then she called his father and he beat him too…
The next day Mohammed returned to school. When the teacher saw him with all the bruises she asked, “What happened to you, little Bruce?”
“Well Miss, you won't believe it. Just two hours after becoming Australian, I was attacked by two f=cking Arabs!....”
Thanks Jack. Love it. Hope it doesn't offend.
