He\u2019d be too easy to catch because he only has one ear!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The policeman angrily responds, \u201cWhat\u2019s the matter with you two?? Of course only one eye and one ear are showing because it\u2019s a picture of his side profile! Is that the best answer you can come up with?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Extremely frustrated at this point, he shows the picture to the third guy and in a very testy voice asks, \u201cThis is your suspect, how would you recognize him?\u201d He quickly adds, \u201cThink hard before giving me a stupid answer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The third guy looks at the picture intently for a moment and says, \u201cthe suspect wears contact lenses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The policeman is surprised and speechless because he really doesn\u2019t know himself if the suspect wears contacts or not.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, that\u2019s an interesting answer. Wait here for a few minutes while I check his file and I\u2019ll get back to you on that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He leaves the room and goes to his office, checks the suspect\u2019s file on his computer, and comes back with a beaming smile on his face. \u201cWow! I can\u2019t believe it. It\u2019s TRUE! The suspect does, in fact, wear contact lenses. Good work! How were you able to make such an astute observation?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s easy,\u201d the third guy replied.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cHe can\u2019t wear regular glasses because he only has one eye and one ear.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2389 size-full td-animation-stack-type2-2\" src=\"https:\/\/teachmelife.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/w2.png\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 597px) 100vw, 597px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teachmelife.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/w2.png 597w, https:\/\/teachmelife.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/w2-232x300.png 232w, https:\/\/teachmelife.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/w2-325x420.png 325w\" alt=\"\" width=\"597\" height=\"772\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>The local sheriff was looking for a deputy, so Chad \u2013 the new blond recruit, wants the job.<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cOkay,\u201d the sheriff drawled, \u201cChad, what is 1 and 1?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c11\u201d he replied.<\/p>\n<p>The sheriff thought to himself, \u201cThat\u2019s not what I meant, but he\u2019s right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat two days of the week start with the letter \u2018T\u2019?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday and tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He was again surprised that Chad supplied a correct answer that he had never thought of himself.
