質問: strange and funny...より質問 再度my humorous japanからの質問です。どうぞ宜しくお願いします。 strange and funny happenings の1つとして紹介されているのですが、オチが分かりません。 the first incident happened in the land surrounding ex-president reagan's california house. some security guards saw a strange man with a strange face. they arrested him and shouted at him. they asked him if he had a bad purpose in coming to mr. reagan's house. the strange man replied, "i am president reagan!" then they said they didn't know him because his face was so strange. his face was strange because he had put anti-wrinkle cream on his face. he had special cream to smooth out the many lines on his face. of course, he wanted to look nice and young for his tokyo visit...when he was getting $2 million for it! 状況がよく分かりません。 元大統領の家と書いてるのに、男は何故「オレはレーガン現大統領だ」と言ったのですか? 捕まった男は本物のレーガン大統領ですか? ...when he was getting $2 million for it! $2 millionのここでの意味とitが何を指すのか? 個々の英文の意味は解るのですが、全体的に何を言いたいのか、どこが面白いのか全く分かりません。 猿でも分かるように解説して頂けませんか?
回答: アメリカの歴代大統領の中でもレーガンさんはとくに皺が多い方でしたから、それをネタとしたジョークでしょうね、このお話全体が。
