Il y a parfois, dans cette plaie électronique qu'est le spam, quelques bouteilles qui surnagent dans la pollution commerciale ou celle des esprits dérangés. Tout n'est pas encore perdu pour la machine humaine tant qu'il lui est permis de rire de son absurdité. Inconvénient, ce spam est en anglo-saxon et parfaitement intraduisible.
Il suffit de savoir que Hu se prononce Hou, soit de la même façon que Who, qui veut dire Qui. Et que Yasser ressemble à Yes Sir. Et que tout cela se passe dans le bureau Avale de Gorge Bouche à la MesDents Blanches.
Ceci a été écrit par James Sherman, à l'occasion de la nomination de Hu Jintao à la tête du Parti Communiste Chinois. Confirmation de la part du Washington Times, qui y rajoute une citation de Sherman sur le sujet : il prenait sa douche lorsque l'idée jaillit. "Je me suis précipité à l'ordinateur pour la frapper."
=== Hu's on First by James Sherman
(We take you now to the Oval Office. George W. Bush and Condoleezza Rice are just coming in.)
George: Condi! Nice to see you. What's happening?
Condi: Sir, I have the report here about the new leader of China.
George: Great. Lay it on me.
Condi: Hu is the new leader of China.
George: That's what I want to know.
Condi: That's what I'm telling you.
George: That's what I'm asking you. Who is the new leader of China?
Condi: Yes.
George: I mean the fellow's name.
Condi: Hu.
George: The guy in China.
Condi: Hu.
George: The new leader of China.
Condi: Hu.
George: The Chinaman!
Condi: Hu is leading China.
George: Now whaddya' asking me for?
Condi: I'm telling you Hu is leading China.
George: Well, I'm asking you. Who is leading China?
Condi: That's the man's name.
George: That's who's name?
Condi: Yes.
George: Will you or will you not tell me the name of the new leader of China?
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: Yassir? Yassir Arafat is in China? I thought he was in the Middle East.
Condi: That's correct.
George: Then who is in China?
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: Yassir is in China?
Condi: No, sir.
George: Then who is?
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: Yassir?
Condi: No, sir.
George: Look, Condi. I need to know the name of the new leader of China. Get me the Secretary General of the U.N. on the phone.
Condi: Kofi?
George: No, thanks.
Condi: You want Kofi?
George: No.
Condi: You don't want Kofi.
George: No. But now that you mention it, I could use a glass of milk. And then get me the U.N.
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: Not Yassir! The guy at the U.N.
Condi: Kofi ?
George: Milk! Will you please make the call ?
Condi: And call who?
George: Who is the guy at the U.N ?
Condi: Hu is the guy in China.
George: Will you stay out of China ?!
Condi: Yes, sir.
George: And stay out of the Middle East! Just get me the guy at the U.N.
Condi: Kofi.
George: All right! With cream and two sugars. Now get on the phone.
(Condi picks up the phone.)
Condi: Rice, here.
George: Rice ? Good idea. And a couple of egg rolls, too. Maybe we should send some to the guy in China. And the Middle East. Can you get Chinese food in the Middle East ?
désolé si c'est un peu long...
