Overheard

"Another guy said to me in a pub, 'I understand you do that (he then did some stupid hand blade chopping actions) stuff?'
I asked him if he thought I was deaf and dumb and speaking their language.
He said, 'No no, which do you think is the best chop of the lot?'
I replied, 'Pork chops during the week and lamb chops on a Sunday.'"

"Over the years one gets asked some stupid questions, I recall one student asked, 'Sensei! What would you do if someone came behind you and hit you on the head with a bottle ?'
I replied, 'Fall down.' "
