The Barn
« on: January 19, 2010, 15:06 »
One day a Jew, a Hindu, and a Scouser all arrived at their hotel to find that there had been a mix-up with the bookings and there was only one room left for them to share.  The manager explained that this room only had two beds, but that there was a barn at a neighbouring farm which the farmer, an old friend of his, would let one of them sleep in free of charge.
 
They complained a bit, but as there was nowhere else to go the Jew graciously said he'd sleep in the barn.  The Hindu and the Scouser were just settling down to sleep in their room, when there was a knock on the door.  It was the Jew.

"I'm sorry," he said, "but there's a pig in that barn and because I'm Jewish I feel uncomfortable about sharing the barn with it."  "No problem," said the Hindu.  "I'll sleep out there instead."  So off he went to the barn, leaving the Scouser and the Jew to share the room.

They were just settling down to sleep, when there was a knock on the door.  It was the Hindu.  "I'm sorry," he said, "but there's a cow in that barn and because I'm a Hindu I feel uncomfortable about sharing the barn with it."

The Scouser grudgingly agreed to give up his bed and stomped off to the barn, leaving the Jew and the Hindu to share the room.  The Jew and the Hindu were just settling down to sleep when there was a knock on the door.

It was the cow and the pig.

There is no opinion, however absurd, which men will not readily embrace as soon as they can be brought to the conviction that it is readily adopted.
