"The real thing" joke
There's the story of a newly rich Punjabi couple who, having come into money, were forever boasting of their acquisitions: a brand new imported car (not a second-hand one), video-cassettes, hi-fi original paintings.' And, of course, our food is always cooked in ash ghee,' said the wife proudly,' no dalda shalda in our kitchen.' Once while holidaying at Juhu Beach in Mumbai, the husband went out of his depth and was just saved from drowning. A doctor was quickly summoned.' Nothing to worry,' exclaimed the medico,' I will give him artificial respiration and he will be all right in a jiffy.'' No you won't,' said the wife.' For my husband it Will have to be real respiration or nothing.'
