These men are so old and drunk that they won\u2019t notice the difference. I\u2019m not wasting two of our girls on them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The manager follows her instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Later, as the two old men walk home, one suddenly says, \u201cYou know, I think the woman I was with was dead.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDead?\u201d his friend asks. \u201cWhy would you think that?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cShe didn\u2019t move or make a sound the entire time!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His friend pauses before replying, \u201cWell, I think mine was a witch.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cA witch?

Exhausted and barely able to move, he notices something sticking out of the sand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He crawls over and pulls out what appears to be an old briefcase. When he opens it, a genie appears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But this isn\u2019t an ordinary genie. She\u2019s dressed like a government tax auditor, complete with a calculator and paperwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWell, cowboy,\u201d she says, \u201cyou have three wishes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI don\u2019t trust this,\u201d the old man replies. \u201cYou look like a tax auditor.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The genie shrugs. \u201cWhat have you got to lose?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cowboy thinks about it and finally agrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFor my first wish, I want to be surrounded by food and water in a beautiful oasis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poof!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He suddenly finds himself in a magnificent oasis filled with delicious food and drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAnd your second wish?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI want to become unbelievably wealthy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poof!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He is instantly surrounded by gold, jewels, and treasure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOne final wish,\u201d the genie says. \u201cChoose carefully.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cowboy thinks for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI want beautiful women to want me wherever I go.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poof!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cowboy is transformed into a tampon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Moral:<\/strong> Whenever the government gives you something, always look for the fine print.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Much Money Did I Have?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here\u2019s a classic trick question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI had $13.

How much money did I have?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The obvious reaction is to add everything together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the question asks how much money you <strong>had<\/strong>, not how much money you received.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You already had $13 and another $5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So the answer is <strong>$18<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes the trick is simply in the wording!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bert and Edna\u2019s Confessions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bert and Edna, an elderly couple married for 55 years, are sitting together on their porch one peaceful Sunday evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Edna suddenly says, \u201cBert, we should talk about our bucket lists.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bert raises an eyebrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m 87, Edna.
