Joke thread.

[chris ashdown]

why has nobody asked why three fully grown men want to share a room

Were they involved in Formula One

Do they dress up

Were any of them called Mosley or wear black shirts

[TraceyHand]

What they paid for the room and what money the do not have is not the same .... the room is one price but they are also down for the money from the bellperson (pc) which also belongs to them.

This is why <insert global corporation> pay millions to accountants each year to juggle figures

*feels partly responsible for jont's impending nervous breakdown*

I knew this would be an interesting one to post!

Was the £2.00 an Actinic component?

[Duncan Rounding]

That's a fat sheila down here.

Sheila's are down under mate.

[leehack]

or as they say up ere a Bloater

That's a fat sheila down here.

[chris ashdown]

The three paid 27 pounds whilst the price was 25

The missing two pound was the theiving little bastard

the 30 pounds is a red herring or as they say up ere a Bloater

[Duncan Rounding]

The £2 that the Bellboy (BellPerson nowadays I suppose to be PC) should be subtracted not added.

[TraceyHand]

hahahahahaha

jont...your brain is warped!
plus, your logic is wrong

[leehack]

The men paid £9.3333 for the room as the thieving bellboy pocketed £2.00

They paid £10 to start with and got a pound back, its hard to argue that they did not pay £9 only, but i think you managed it. I think you are better off looking at it from the point, that the men did not pay just £9 (£10-£1) as they also had to pay the stolen £2. A clever and good puzzle though, i can see that one causing some arguments.

[jont]

THIS MEANT THAT THE 3 MEN EACH PAID £9.00 FOR THE ROOM.

The men paid £9.3333 for the room as the thieving bellboy pocketed £2.00

£10.00-(£2.00/3) = £9.333333

£9.33333 x 3 = £28.00

£28.00 + £2.00 stolen = £30.00 they started with

... you have to love mathematics

[TraceyHand]

One to mess with your head

Firstly, sorry its all in caps but I've C&Ped, I have no inclination to retype!

3 MEN GO INTO A HOTEL. THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK SAID THE ROOM IS £30.00 SO EACH MAN PAID £10.00 AND WENT TO THE ROOM.

A WHILE LATER THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK REALIZED THE ROOM WAS ONLY £25.00

SO HE SENT THE BELLBOY TO THE 3 GUYS' ROOM WITH £5.00

ON THE WAY THE BELLBOY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO SPLIT £5.00 EVENLY

BETWEEN 3 MEN, SO HE GAVE EACH MAN A £1.00 AND KEPT THE OTHER £2.00 FOR HIMSELF.

THIS MEANT THAT THE 3 MEN EACH PAID £9.00 FOR THE ROOM, WHICH IS A TOTAL

OF £27.00, ADD THE £2.00 THAT THE BELLBOY KEPT = £29.00

WHERE IS THE OTHER POUND?

A newspaper opened an advice column called "Dear Walter" but since they were not able to find a female columnist similar to the late and well-beloved Dear Abby they employed a man to write replies. Here's what happened:

Dear Walter,

I hope you can help me here. The other day I set off for work leaving my husband in the house, watching TV as usual. I hadn't gone more than a few hundred yards down the road when my engine conked out and the car shuddered to a halt. I walked back home to get my husband's help. When I got home I couldn't believe my eyes. He was parading in front of the wardrobe dressed in my underwear, high heel shoes and he was wearing my makeup. I am 32, my husband is 34 and we've been married for twelve years.

When I confronted him he tried to make out that he had dressed in my lingerie because he couldn't find his own underwear, but when I asked him about the makeup he broke down and admitted that he'd been wearing my stuff for six months. I told him to stop or I'd leave him. He was let go from his job six months ago and says he's been feeling increasingly depressed and worthless. I love him very much, but ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly distant. I don't feel I can get through to him any more. Can you please help?

Sincerely, Mrs Sheila Usk.

Dear Sheila,

A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a variety of faults with the engine. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line. If this is clear, check the jubilee clips holding the vacuum pipes onto the inlet manifold. If none of these approaches solves the problem it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to the carburettor float chamber. I hope this helps.
Walter.

An old Italian man, living alone in the country wanted to dig his tomato garden, but it was very hard work and the ground was hard. His only son, Vincent, who used to help was now in prison.
The old man wrote to tell his son of the problem.

Dear Vincent,
I am very unhappy as I won't be able to plant my tomatoes this year, I'm getting too old, the ground is hard, and I know if you were here, you'd dig it over for me.
Love Dad

A few days later, the old man received a reply.

Dear Dad.
don't dig up the garden, thats where the Bodies are buried
Love Vinnie

at 4am, the next morning, the local police turned up, dug up the entire garden, but failed to find the bodies, They apologised to the old man and left. The next day, the old man recieved another letter from his son.

Dear Dad.
Go ahead, plant the tomatoes now, Thats the best I could do, considerug my circumstances
Love Vinnie
