His-tory making

Whenever I can't sleep at nite, I would ask hubbie to tell me a bedtime story.

He would sometimes relate to me his laugh-out-loud childhood stories or his laugh-till-i-cry army stories.

Last nite, he ran out of stories to tell and asked me,

"Ok, I m going to give you boring history tonite. Which era or which century you want my story to be based on?"

I thought for a moment and said, "The earliest era you can recall."

"googakeetoofoofuu..." he started babbling in non-identifiable language.

"What's that?!" I asked.

"Caveman stories" he explained, trying to be funny.

I did not think it was funny and poked him for another story in a later era.

"Ok, I will tell you a story from the 18th century" he went on.

"In the 18th century, William Farquhar was the president of the Temasek Island. He sell his shares in Temasek Holdings to Thaksin...."

Huh?!?!
