The
Detectives
A policeman interrogates
three blondes who are training to become detectives. To test their
skills in recognizing a suspect, he shows the first blonde a picture
for five seconds and then hides it. "This is your suspect,
how would you recognize him?"
The first blonde answers,
"That's easy, we'll catch him fast because he only has one
eye!"
The policeman says, "Well,
uh, thats because the picture shows his profile."
Slightly flustered by
this ridiculous response, he flashes the picture for five seconds
at the second blonde and asks her, "This is your suspect,
how would you recognize him?"
The second blonde giggles,
flips her hair and says, "Ha! He'd be too easy to catch because
he only has one ear!"
The policeman angrily
responds, "What's the matter with you two?! Of course only
one eye and one ear are showing because it's a picture of his
profile! Is that the best answer you can come up with?"
Extremely frustrated
at this point, he shows the picture to the third blonde and in
a very testy voice asks, "This is your suspect, how would
you recognize him?" He quickly adds, "Think hard before
giving me a stupid answer."
The blonde looks at the
picture intently for a moment and says, "Hmm - the suspect
wears contact lenses."
The policeman is surprised
and speechless because he really doesn't know if the suspect wears
contacts or not. "Well, that's an interesting answer. Wait
here for a few minutes while I check his file."
He leaves the room and
goes to his office, checks the suspects file in his computer,
and comes back with a beaming smile on his face. "Wow! I
cant believe it. It's true! The suspect does in fact wear contact
lenses. Good work! How were you able to make such an astute observation?"
"That's easy,"
the blonde replied. "He can't wear regular glasses because
he only has one eye and one ear."
