pluralThe Iranian ambassador to the UN had just finished giving a speech and
walked out into the lobby where he met the United States ambassador John Bolton.
They exchanged pleasantries and as they walked the Iranian said, "You know I

The Iranian whispered, "My son watches this show 'Star Trek' and in it there

Bolton laughed, leaned toward the Iranian ambassador and whispered back,
"It's because it takes place in the future."
