Tricky question

One of Santa’s friends asked him how many chapattis he could eat on an empty stomach. Santa replied, "Seven". His friend said, "When you eat the first chapatti, your stomach is no longer empty. Then how can you eat seven?"

Impressed by this tricky question, Santa as soon as he went back home asked his wife, "How many chapattis can you eat on an empty stomach?" She said, "Five." Santa, "Oh`.. If only you had told seven I would have had a nice reply for it."

 

Two drinks

Dr Burns was disgusted when Frank staggered into his office thoroughly inebriated. He told him severely. "What happened, Frank? You had to cut down to just two drinks a day." Frank dragged a finger across his chest. "Cross my heart, doc, I did as you asked."

"Impossible. If you had, you wouldn’t be in this shape." "No, honestly," Frank replied. In fact, when I left here the other day. I went to another doc for a second opinion and he too prescribed the same thing."

 

Blonde’s bet

A blonde went into a bar. She sat down next to this guy and started watching the news, which showed a man getting ready to jump off a bridge. The blonde said, "I don’t think he is going to jump." "No I am pretty sure he will," said the guy. The blonde lays down a 50-dollar bill and says, "I bet you 50 dollars he won’t." The man lays down a 50 too and says, "I bet you 50 dollars he will"

They keep watching and sure enough the man jumped. The blonde then pushes the 50 towards him. The guy laughs and says, "I can’t take that. I saw this an hour ago." The blonde says, "No you take it. I saw it an hour ago too. But I didn't think he would be stupid enough to jump again."

 

Directions

A Swiss man, looking for directions, pulls up at a bus stop where two Americans are waiting.

"Entschuldigung, koennen Sie Deutsch sprechen?" he asks. The two Americans just stare at him.

"Excusez-moi, parlez vous Francais?" he tries. The two continue to stare.

"Parlare Italiano?"

No response.

"Hablan ustedes Espanol?"

Still nothing.

The Swiss guy drives off, disgusted. The first American turns to the second and says, "You know, maybe we should learn a foreign language."

"Why?" says the other. "That guy knew four languages, and it didn't do him any good."
