A Mistake 搞錯了

An American, a Scot and a Canadian were killed in a car accident. They arrived at the gates of heaven, where a flustered St. Peter explained that there had been a mistake. "Give me $500 each," he said, "and I'll return you to earth as if the whole thing never happened."

"Deal!" said the American. Instantly, he found himself standing unhurt near the scene.

"Where are the others?" asked a doctor.

"Last I knew," said the American, "the Scot was haggling price, and the Canadian was arguing that his government should pay."

一位美國人、一位蘇格蘭人和一位加拿大人在一場車禍中喪生。他們到達天堂的門口。在那裏，慌張的的聖彼德解釋說是搞錯了。他說：“每人付五百元，我將送你們回人間，就當什麼也沒有發生過。”

美國人說：“成交!”。立刻，他發現自己完好無缺地站在車禍現場附近。

一名醫生問：“其他人在哪裡？”

美國人答：“離開前，我看見蘇格蘭人正在討價還價，而加拿大人則在爭論著應由他的政府來出這筆錢。”

flustered adj.
fluster n. & v.           

If I look flustered it's because I'm trying to do about twenty things at once.
若我看來慌慌張張的，因我同時做著太多件事情。
