The officer said, “Pedro, you have passed all the tests, except there is one more test.
Unless you pass it you cannot enter the U.S. as a citizen”
Pedro said, “I am ready.”
The officer said, “Make a sentence using the words yellow, pink, and green.”
Pedro thought for a few minutes and said, “Mister Officer, I am ready.”
The officer said, “Go ahead.”
Pedro said, “The telephone goes green, green, green, and I pink it up and say Yellow, this is Pedro.”
Needless to say, Pedro now lives in a neighborhood near you!
