If My Mouth Still Holds Water
After the barber had cut, nicked and gashed him, the customer
asked for a glass of water. The barber said, " What's the matter---do you feel faint?"
"No, "said the customer, " I just want to see if my mouth still holds water."
　　　　　　　　　　　我的嘴是否还能乘水
一位顾客的头在被理发师划了一个又大又深的口子后，要了一杯水。理发师问他：“怎么回事——你感到头晕吗？”
“不是，”这位顾客回答，“我只是想看看我的嘴是否还能乘水（我是否还活着）。”
