An american arrived early in Tokyo for a meeting with an important client. Having a night free, he hired a Geisha. After much saki, they retired to his bed where he made full, albeit drunken, use of her services. During this bout, the Geisha exclaimed again and again "ichi-ka", "ichi-ka", which the man (who spoke no Japanese) assumed must mean "wonderful" or "fantastic" in honor of his great performance.
The next day his customer invited this man to meet him at a golf club. As luck would have it, the customer scored a hole in one on the par three second hole.
Realizing that he must congratulate his host, and feeling that it would have more impact in his native language, the American (remembering the screams of his consort from the evening before), clapped his host on the back and exclaimed "Ichi-ka!' in a loud voice.
The customer's face went from a beaming smile of joy to the most crestfallen look of dismay as he said "what you mean ... wrong hole"?
