Ok, here is the last
question, true or false?
Let me flip a coin. (flip) Heads--- true!
Finally, I finish all the questions on my test paper.
Hmm, I still have a few minutes, my teacher told me always double check,
(get the coin)
Wait, this is my final exam, I better flip-- a thousand dollar bill.
(flip the bill)
This is how I got my dentist degree. You know, nowadays, going to a
university, you don’t have to be good -- especially in Taiwan.
Contest master, ladies and
gentlemen,
When you come to the crossroad of your life, will you turn right? Left?
or flip a coin?
When I graduated from
dental school, I wanted to go to America for a master’s degree; but I
would have to leave my boyfriend to those single, available, beautiful
but terribly sexy girls, like spicy Rubyby, or forever young and
beautiful Sammimmi. “Should I get a degree or--- get a husband?”
My boyfriend said: “Let’s
flip a coin” “No! As a smart girl, how can I let ten dollars decide my
future, you stupid! ”
--- At least you should give me a 50-dollar-coin.
We need to do some research. I googled, www.where-is-my -husband .com.tw,
---here is a fortuneteller who can read your palm and “add colors” to
your life! Click,宋八力!
Mr. Somebody! Let’s go:
“Mirror, mirror on the
wall, who has the best future of all?”
“You read too much snow white, get to the point!”
“Will I get married?” ---“Mmm--- Depends on how hard you try.”
“Will I have kid?”--“Mmm--- Depends on how hard your husband try. ”
“Oh---Just tell me, what will I have?”
“I see a knife and a mouth in your destiny!”
Wait, I’ve heard of Feng
Shui, I have heard of the 12 Chinese zodiac signs: mouse, ox, tiger,
rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig. But,
a knife and a mouth? ---That’s ridiculous.
The next day, my boyfriend
called: “Linda, I can accept a big-mouthed girl, but a big knife? Let’s
break up before you cut--- cut me up.”
I cried and called my
friend Cindy, she said
“Linda, you should have
flipped the coin,” should I?
“Yes, at least you would have a 50-50 chance.”
“I do not want a chance; I just want to cut him up!”
“Don’t do that, Linda, let me do it, --- because your knife is made in
China.”
Th---thanks, thanks for your brilliant evaluation.
Few years later, I became a
“famous” dentist, well, a “famous toothmaster” who went overtime last
year.
With my dentist degree and
knife, I made money inside every mouth until I met my price charming.
This time I just followed my heart and got married.
Now I use another knife to
cut fish, beef, pork, chicken, potato, tomato, cut, cut, cut,---. I cut
everything except--- my husband. I live happily ever after, and my
husband lives-- safely, -- so far.
Last night, he said:
“Honey, I know your destiny, you do have a mouth, you do have a knife,
that’s nagging(叨),
you never stop nagging!”
“Wait a minute, nagging? In Toastmasters we call it a speech, ---- and
everybody is looking forward to my next speech, right?” “Right?” “if you
don’t say right, be careful, I will cut--- cut my speech.”
Fellow Toastmasters,
We can not change our palms, but we can change our thinking, change our
future, or--- change another boy friend. When you come to the crossroad
of your life, will you turn right? Left? Or flip a coin?
Once again, it’s time for
me to flip a coin.
Oops, I miss it!
It doesn’t matter, because my choice, my destiny is in my own hands.
But, today, my future is--- in the judges hands.
Contest master.
