I think they already are prone to a certain degree, do you know of one who does not suffer from 'loss of memory' from time to time?.

Well, now I'm sure there is something wrong with my mind (quite appropriate thread for it to happen as well!)

I am sure I remember seeing another post on this thread, I think I can even remember some of what it said. I don't recall it said anything particularly nice....

... yet now, it seems to have mysteriously vanished??!!!

The mind boggles!!!

OK

Three poor men who only have 15 pence between them go into a cafe and order a coffee each. Coffees cost 5 pence there and each man gives the waiter his 5 pence.

At that price the coffee is dreadful and they complain to the waiter that the coffee tastes like burnt toast scrapings in hot water.

The waiter goes to the cafe manager and tells him that the customers are complaining again.

Okay says the manager, I don't want any trouble, give them a refund of 5 pence, a third off the bill.

The waiter goes back to the 3 men.

The manager says you can have a refund, he says, slipping 2 pence of the refund into his back pocket, you can have a penny each, and he hands 1 pence to each of the three men.

So, each man has paid 5 pence and received 1 pence refund, they have therefore have paid 4 pence each for each of their coffees.

Now three 4 pences make 12 pence in total, the waiter has the 2 pence he slipped into his back pocket, add that together and you have 14 pence.

Where's the other penny gone? There was 15 pence to start with,,,,

Ha ha, the 15p was only in transit, there's only 12p in the transaction:

The 3 poor men paid 12p for the 3 cups of coffee
the coffee owner made 10p out of the deal
leaving the 2p which the waiter took as his "unofficial" tip

I'm not surprised the coffee was rank if it only cost 5p a cup! Not exactly starbucks, eh?

By the way, did you know that eggplants have a penchant for antelope?


Zan

Hope did you get that one? Surely it would have neen an apple eating iguana from Dubai.

Well done on Dubai though, I thought Denmark and the Dominican Republic were the only 2 countries that began with "D".

You said we had to be good with numbers. You did not mention that we had to be able to spell as well :roll:


In my case it should have been "A tomato eating idiot from Dubai" :lol:
