I want socks.

A man from Peru decided to visit America, although he spoke no English.

Upon reaching it, one of the first thing he did was go into a department store. He found his way to the menswear department where a young lady offered to help him.

“Quiero calcetines, (I want socks)” said the man.

“I don’t speak Spanish, but we have some very nice suits over here,” said the salesgirl.

“No, no quiero trajes. Quiero calcetines,(No I don’t want suits, I want socks.)” said the man.

“Well, these shirts are on sale this week,” declared the salesgirl.

“No, no quiero camisas. Quiero calcetines, (No I don’t want shirts, I want socks.)” repeated the man.

“I still don’t know what you’re trying to say. We have some fine pants on this rack,” offered the salesgirl.

“No, no quiero pantalones. Quiero calcetines,(No I don’t want pants, I want socks)” insisted the man.

As they passed the underwear counter, the man spotted a display of socks and happily grabbed a pair. Holding them up he proclaimed, “Eso sí que es (Now that’s it)!”

“Then why didn’t you just spell it in the first place?!?” yelled the salesgirl.

Three sons left home to make their fortunes, and they all did very, very well for themselves.

They got together recently and were discussing what they each had done to benefit their aging mother. ‘Well,’ said the first one, ‘I bought mom a huge house in Beverly Hills.’

‘I bought her a Mercedes and hired a full-time driver for her.’

‘I’ve beaten you both,’ said the third. ‘I bought her a miraculous parrot that can talk to her.’

A little later, the mother sent out a thank you letter to all three sons.

‘Gerald, the house you bought was too big. I only live in one room, and I have to clean the entire house. Milton, the car is useless because I don’t go anywhere; I’m too old. But Robert, you know exactly what I like. The chicken was delicious.’
