Indian boy on his first day at school in USA.......... awesome
Here is a true story about a Indian boy on his first day at school in the USA. It was the first day of school and a new student named ChandrashekharSubramanyam ¡V CS, entered the fourth grade.
The teacher said, 'Let's begin by reviewing some American History.Who said 'Give me Liberty, or give me Death'? She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Chandrashekhar, who had his hand-up:'Patrick Henry, 1775' he said. 'Very good!' Who said 'Government of the People, by the People, forthe People, shall not perish from the Earth?' Again, no response except from Chandrashekhar. 'Abraham Lincoln, 1863'said Chandrashekhar. The teacher snapped at the class, 'Class, you should be ashamed. Chandrashekhar, who is new to our country, knows more about itshistory than you do.' She heard a loud whisper: 'F**k the Indians,''Who said that?' she demanded.Chandrashekhar put his hand up. 'General Custer, 1862.' At that point, a student in the back said, 'I'm gonna puke.'The teacher glares around and asks 'All right! Now, who said that?'Again, Chandrashekhar says, 'George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991.' Now furious, another student yells, 'Oh yeah? S*ck this!'Chandrashekhar jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts tothe teacher, 'Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!' Now with almost a mob hysteria someone said 'You little shit. If yousay anything else, I'll kill you.' Chandrashekhar frantically yells at the top of his voice, 'Gary Conditto Chandra Levy, 2001.' The teacher fainted. . And as the class gathered around the teacher onthe floor, someone said, 'Oh shit, we're f**ked!' And Chandrashekhar said quietly, 'George Bush, Iraq, 2005.'
