Silly women
Elwood and Bubba are standing at the base of a flagpole, looking up.
A woman walks by and asks what they are doing.
Elwood says, “We’re supposed to find the height of this flagpole, but we don’t have a ladder.”
The woman says, “Hand me that wrench from your toolbox.”
She loosens a few bolts, then lays the pole down. She takes a tape measure from the toolbox, measures it and announces, “It’s eighteen feet, six inches long” and walks away.
Bubba shakes his head and laughs. “Well ain’t that just like a woman!”
“We need the height, and she gives us the length.”
Uuuh….
In questioning a coroner, an attorney asks, “Doctor, how many of your autopsies have you performed on dead people?”
Quality vs quantity
An executive is so frustrated at being passed over for promotion year after year, that he goes to a brain-transplant centre in the hope of raising his IQ by 20 points. After a battery of tests to determine compatibility, he is told by the centre’s director that he is an acceptable candidate.
Twenty IQ points can be obtained from one or more donors, but the cost will vary based on the type of donor, and the candidate will have to find the donor, or donors.
For example, if he finds an accountant, economist, or engineer that would agree, the cost will only be R25,000.
On the other hand, if the 20 IQ points come from corporate executives, politicians, or attorneys, it will be much more expensive.
“Why is that?” asks the executive. “Because,” the director explains, “For those brain types, it will take more than one brain donor.”
