Dumb as a box of Rocks

"It's a What?"*

*A man walked into a cowboy bar and ordered a
beer just as former President George Bush, Jr. aired
on the television. After a few sips, he looked up at
the television and mumbled ,"Now, there is the
biggest horse's a*s I have ever seen."

A customer at the end of the bar quickly stood up,
walked over to him, and decked him.

A few minutes later, as the man was finishing his beer,
former President Ronald Reagan appeared on the
television. "He is a horse's a*s too!" the man said.

This time, a customer at the other end of the bar
quickly stood up, walked over to him, and knocked him off his stool.

"Damn it!" the man said, climbing back up to the
bar. "This must be republican country!"

"Nope," the bartender replied, "Horse country!"

"Dumb as a box of Rocks"*

*A noted psychiatrist was a guest speaker at an academic
function where George Bush Jr. happened to appear.
George took the opportunity to schmooze the good
doctor a bit and asked him a question with which he was most at ease.

"Would you mind telling me, Doctor," he asked, "how
you detect a mental deficiency in somebody who
appears completely normal?"

"Nothing is easier," he replied. "You ask a simple question
which anyone should answer with no trouble. If the
person hesitates, that puts you on the track."

"What sort of question?" asked George.

"Well, you might ask, 'Captain Cook made three trips
around the world and died during one of them. Which one?'"

George thought a moment, and then said with a nervous
laugh, "You wouldn't happen to have another example
would you? I must confess I do not know much about history.."
