A fleeing Taliban, was plodding through the Afghanistan desert when
he saw something far off in the distance.
Hoping to find water, he walked toward the object, only to find a
little old Jewish man sitting at a card table with neckties laid
out on it.
The Arab asked, "My thirst is killing me. Do you have water?"
The Jewish man replied, "I have no water. Would you like to buy a tie?
They are only $150. This one goes very nicely with your robes."
The Arab shouted, "Idiot! ...

The Arab shouted, "Idiot! I do not need an overpriced tie. I need
water!"
"OK," said the old Jew, "it does not matter that you do not want to
buy a tie. I will show you that you have not offended me. If you
walk over that hill to the east for about two miles, you will find
a lovely restaurant.
Go! Walk that way! The restaurant has all the water you need!"
The Arab staggered away toward the hill and eventually disappeared.
Four hours later the Arab came crawling back to where the Jewish
man was sitting at his table.
The Jew said, "I told you, about two miles over that hill. Could
you not find it?"
A blonde lady motorist was about two hours from San Diego when she was
flagged down by a man whose truck had broken down.
The man walked up to the car and asked, "Are you going to San Diego
Sure," answered the blonde, "do you need a lift?"
"Not for me. I'll be spending the next three hours fixing my truck. My
problem is I've got two chimpanzees in the back which have to be taken
to the San Diego Zoo. They're a bit stressed already so I don't want to
keep them on the road all day. ...
A blonde lady motorist was about two hours from San Diego when she was

The man walked up to the car and asked, "Are you going to San Diego
Sure," answered the blonde, "do you need a lift?"
"Not for me. I'll be spending the next three hours fixing my truck. My
problem is I've got two chimpanzees in the back which have to be taken
to the San Diego Zoo. They're a bit stressed already so I don't want to
keep them on the road all day. Could you possibly take them to the zoo
for me?
I'll give you $100 for your trouble."
"I'd be happy to," said the blonde.
So the two chimpanzees were ushered into the back seat of the blonde's
car and carefully strapped into their seat belts. Off they went.
Five hours later, the truck driver was driving through the heart of San
Diego when suddenly he was horrified!! There was the blonde walking down
the street and holding hands with the two chimps, much to the amusement
of a big crowd. With a screech of brakes he pulled off the road and ran
over to the blonde.
"What the heck are you doing here?" he demanded, "I gave you $100 to
take these chimpanzees to the zoo."
"Yes, I know you did," said the blonde, "but we had money left over---so
now we're going to Sea World. !!!!
