每通电话一万元!

在公司里,同事很喜欢传一些“有趣”的垃圾邮件。通常我都会看了之后顺手删除,我从来不做“转播站”。几天前,坐在我隔壁的那一位洋妞闲来无事,转发了一封有关纽西兰的笑话。我觉得非常有趣,拿来这里与本部落的朋友分享一番!本来想把这笑话翻译成中文,可是怕翻译後会破坏这笑话的原味,尤其是末端那句对白,非得用英语来说才好笑,所以还是把原文发布在这里吧!

An American decided to write a book about famous churches around the world. So he bought a plane ticket and took a trip to Orlando , thinking that he would start by working his way across the USA from South to North.

On his first day he was inside a church taking photographs when he noticed a golden telephone mounted on the wall with a sign that read ‘$10,000 per call’. The American, being intrigued, asked a priest who was strolling by what the telephone was used for. The priest replied that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 you could talk to God. The American thanked the priest and went along his way.

Next stop was in Atlanta . There, at a very large cathedral, he saw the same looking golden telephone with the same sign under it. He wondered if this was the same kind of telephone he saw in Orlando and he asked a nearby nun what its purpose was. She told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 he could talk to God.

‘O.K., thank you,’ said the American. He then travelled all across America , Europe, England , Japan , Australia, In every church he saw the same looking golden telephone with the same ‘$US10,000 per call’ sign under it.

The American decided to travel to New Zealand to see if Kiwis had the same phone. He arrived in Wellington and again, in the first church he entered, there was the same looking golden telephone, But this time the sign under it read ’40 cents per call.’
The American was surprised so he asked the priest about the sign. ‘Father, I’ve travelled all over the world and I’ve seen this same Golden telephone in many churches. I’m told that it is a direct line to Heaven, but in all of them the price was $10,000 per call. Why is it so cheap here?’

The priest smiled and answered, ‘You’re in New Zealand now, son – it’s a local call’.

这就对了!尽情的开怀大笑吧! 😄
