Johnny Carson had a routine playing off of the classic "Who's on first?". He played President Reagan and the key was James Watt. Johnny started out with the President asking "What is the name of the Secretary of the Interior?" I'm looking for it on the web now. It was funny.
Not only did I post the Hu parody when the news about Hu came on the Net on November 14, I also posted the thread itself. You can see the Hu's On First Parody on the thread
HERE and below. BTW, when I used to write a Sunday humor column for the Houston Chronicle "Texas Magazine" years ago, I also wrote a similar parody using the name of "Hu" or "Hoo." I'll try to find that one. I got inspired by it because I was neighbors with a visiting UCLA professor from mainland China named "How" (or maybe it was "Hau"). I could write a whole funny book on my observations of Professor How adjusting to life in the U.S.A..
OK, here is the latest parody from last week and I'll see if I can find that Houston Chronicle story I wrote:
"It looks like the leader of China is Hu."
"Who?"
"Yes."
"Who?"
"Absolutely!"
"The leader of China---What is his name?"
No. Wat is the Interior Minister, Hu is the Leader."
That's what I want to find out....WHO is the Leader."
"Yes, Hu."
"What?"
"....Is the Interior Minister."
"What?"
"Yes, Watt."
"He's the guy?"
No, Hee is the Finance Minister."
