Is it Thursday already?!!

Some years back with some friends from work we took a long weekend trip to Amsterdam - we hadn't been there above 3 hours and I went into the toilet in a bar and the name on the toilet roll was - Big Wiley - I kid you not!!
Course we all acted 'very grown up' and rushed in with our cameras to take photo's!!

Walking through Chinatown, a tourist is fascinated with all the Chinese restaurants, shops, signs and banners. He turns a corner and sees a building with the sign, "Hans Olaffsen's Laundry."

"Hans Olaffsen?", he muses. "How the heck does that fit in here?". So he walks into the shop and sees an old Chinese gentleman behind the counter.

The tourist asks, "How did this place get a name like "Hans Olaffsen's Laundry?"

The old man answers, "Is name of owner."

The tourist asks, "Well, who and where is the owner?"

"Me, is right here," replies the old man.

"You? How did you ever get a name like Hans Olaffsen?"

"Is simple," says the old man. "Many, many year ago when come to this country, was stand in line at Documentation Center. Man in front was big blonde Swede. Lady look at him and go:

"What your name?"

He say: "Hans Olaffsen."

Then she look at me and go: "What your name?"

I say: "Sem Ting."

Along the lines of Jonza's joke...

There really was a restaurant by the name of Sam
Dam Tings...When an auto club (AAA) writer did a story with the eatery's owner, he asked what Sam
Dam Ting meant in english..

The owner's answer???
