Before a gymnastics event at the Beijing Olympics, an American athlete was sitting next to a Chinese athlete in the locker room. The American said: "Everyone in the States says China has a human rights problem. Is that true?" "I'm afraid so," replied the Chinese athlete. "In our legal system, it is hard to get a fair trial. The judges decide who has won before the trial even takes place." "That's terrible," said the American. "What a way to live!" In an attempt to lighten the mood, the Chinese athlete asked: "So, do you think you will do well in your floor routine today?" "I know I will," answered the American. "We've paid off the Spanish and French judges, and the Russians are trading votes with us." Did you hear about the man who dreamed someone was shouting: "On your marks, get set, go!?" He woke up with a start.
