"Aptitude Test"
Little Johnny wanted to be an accountant,
so he went for an aptitude test:
Tester: If I give you two Rabbits, and two
rabbits, and another two rabbits, how
many rabbits have you got?
Little Johnny : SEVEN!
Tester : No, listen carefully again. If I give
you two Rabbits, and two rabbits, and
another two rabbits, how many rabbits
have you got?
Little Johnny : SEVEN!
Tester : Let's try this another way. If I give
you two bottles of beer, and two bottles of
beer, and another two bottles of beer, how
many bottles of beer have you got?
Little Johnny : SIX.
Tester : Good! Now, if I give you two Rabbits,
and two rabbits, and another two rabbits,
how many rabbits have you got?
Little Johnny : SEVEN!
Tester : How on Earth do you work out that
three lots of two rabbits is seven?
Little Johnny: I've already got one rabbit
at home now!

"Three Things You Need To Survive"
A Scout Master was teaching his boy
scouts about survival in the desert.
"What are the three most important things
you should bring with you in case you
get lost in the desert?" he asked. Several
hands went up, and many important things
were suggested such as food, matches, etc.
Then one little boy in the back eagerly
raised his hand. "Yes Timmy, what are
the three most important things you would
bring with you?" asked the Scout Master.
Timmy replied: "A compass, a canteen of
water, and a deck of cards."
"Why's that Timmy?"
"Well," answered Timmy, "the compass is
to find the right direction, the water is to
prevent dehydration..."
"And what about the deck of cards?"
asked the Scout Master impatiently.
"Well, Sir, as soon as you start playing
Solitaire, someone is bound to come up
behind you and say, "Put that red nine
on top of that black ten!"
