It Takes a Lot to Laugh
I found this story in a very old book, and I was charmed with this short story.
Chemistry professor.- “Jones, what does HNO3 signify?”
Student.- “Well, ah… I’ve got it right on the tip of my tongue”.
Professor.- “Well, you had better spit it out. It’s nitric acid”.
This story can make you smile, even if it would last only for a second.
The LAPD, The FBI, and the CIA are all trying to prove that they are the best at apprehending criminals. The President decides to give them a test. He releases a rabbit into a forest and each of them has to catch it.
he CIA goes in. They place animal informants throughout the forest. They question all plant and mineral witnesses. After three months of extensive investigations they conclude that rabbits do not exist.
The FBI goes in.
After two weeks with no leads they burn the forest, killing everything in it, including the rabbit, and they make no apologies. The rabbit had it coming. The LAPD goes in. They come out two hours later with a badly beaten bear. The bear is yelling: “Okay! Okay! I’m a rabbit! I’m a rabbit!”
