Can't get the joke 2 - "Alaska" The joke reads like 1st Eskimo: Where did your mother come from? 2nd Eskimo: Alaska 1st Eskimo: Don't bother. I'll ask her myself. What's the joke?
问题补充:
To Tom: That's the only text I read. No more context to give :)

I don't get it either. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that not all Eskimos live in Alaska. Can you supply more context?

The joke is 'I'll ask her' and 'Alaska' sound very similiar and so the answer has not been understood.
