Try This.....
Here is a math trick so unbelievable that it will stump you. Personally I
would like to know who came up with this and why that person is not running
the country.
1. Grab a calculator. (you won't be able to do this one in your head)
2. Key in the first three digits of your phone number(NOT the area code)
3. Multiply by 80
4. Add 1
5. Multiply by 250
6. Add the last 4 digits of your phone number
7. Add the last 4 digits of your phone number again.
8. Subtract 250
9. Divide number by 2
Do you recognize the answer???
Ice cream
---------
A man goes into an ice cream parlor and says, "I'd like two scoops of
chocolate ice cream, please."
The girl behind the counter says, "I'm very sorry, sir, but our delivery
truck broke down this morning, so we're out of chocolate."
"In that case," the man says, "I'll have two scoops of chocolate ice cream."
"You don't understand, sir," the girl says. "We have NO chocolate."
"Then just give me some chocolate," he says.
Getting angrier by the second, the girl says, "Sir, will you spell VAN, as
in vanilla?"
The man says, "Sure. V-A-N."
"Now spell STRAW, as in strawberry."
"OK. S-T-R-A-W."
"Very good. Now," the girl says, "spell STINK, as in chocolate."
The man hesitates. Then he says, "There is no stink in chocolate."
"THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL YOU!" she screams.
Only the elderly
----------------
A retired man who volunteers to entertain patients in nursing homes and
hospitals went to Maimonides Hospital in Brooklyn and took his portable
keyboard along. He told some jokes and sang some funny songs at patients'
bedsides.
When he finished he said, in farewell, "I hope you get better."
One elderly gentleman replied, "I hope you get better, too."
