Maybe this little story is so old, nobody has heard it.

A boy from a poor family went to work for a Chinese businessman named Chan. Chan had a large lumberyard featuring expensive wood like teak. At the end of the first week, when the boy received his pay, he found that Chan had shortchanged him by a considerable amount. He was so angry, he decided steal some expensive wood from Chan to make up the difference. That night he dressed himself in a bearskin that was so big, only his bare feet showed beneath the fur. Then he sneaked into the lumberyard and grabbed a large, choice piece of teak and headed out the gate. Just then, Chan drove up and his headlights showed the barefooted boy running away. He shouted, "Halt, boy-foot bear with teak of Chan!"

OK, it's probably listed in the bad jokes, but I don't have time to look for it.
