An airplane takes off from the airport.
The captain is Jewish and the first officer is Chinese.
It's the first time they've flown together and it's obvious by the silence that they don't get along.
After thirty minutes, the Jewish Captain speaks, "I don't like Chinese."
The First Officer replies, " Ooooh, no like Chinese? Why ees that?"
The Captain says, "You bombed Pearl Harbor. That's why I don't like Chinese."
The First Officer says, "Noooo, noooo…. Chinese not bomb Pearl Harbah. That Japanese, not Chinese."
And the Captain answers, "Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese… it doesn't matter, they're all alike."
Another thirty minutes of silence.
Finally the First Officer says, "No like Jew."
The Captain replies, "Why not? Why don't you like Jews?"
The First Officer says, "Jews sink Titanic."
The Captain tries to correct him, "No, no. The Jews didn't sink the Titanic. It was an iceberg."
The First Officer replies," Iceberg, Goldberg, Rosenberg, no mattah. All same."
Shy Guy, you're so inscrutable.
In an hour I'm just going to want to meet another Admiral.
