A policeman was interrogating 3
blondes who were training to become detectives. To test their skills in
recognizing a suspect, he shows the first blonde a picture for 5 second
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...that's because the picture shows his PROFILE."
Slightly
flustered by this ridiculous response, he flashes the picture for 5
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, "Hmmmm...the suspect wears contact lenses."
The
policeman is surprised and speechless because he really doesn't know
himself if the suspect wears contacts or not. "Well, that's an
interesting answer...wait here for a few minutes while I check his file
and I'll get back to you on that."
He leaves
the room and goes to his office, checks the suspect's file in his
computer, and comes back with a beaming smile on his face. "Wow! I can't 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!"
