A policeman was interrogating 3 blondes who were training
to become detectives. To test their skills in recognizing
a suspect, he shows the first blonde a picture for 5 seconds
and then hides it. "This is your suspect, how would you
recognize him?"
The first blonde answers, "That's easy, we'll catch him
fast because he only has one eye!"
The policeman says, "Well...uh...that's because the picture
shows his profile." Slightly flustered by this ridiculous
response, he flashes the picture for 5 seconds at the
second blonde and asks her, "This is your suspect, how
would you recognize him?"
The second blonde giggles, flips her hair and says, "Ha!
He'd be too easy to catch because he only has one ear!"
The policeman angrily responds, "What's the matter with
you two?!? Of course only one eye and one ear are SHOWING
because it's a picture of his profile!! Is that the best
answer you can come up with? Extremely frustrated at this
point, he shows the picture to the third blonde and in a
very testy voice asks, "This is your suspect, how would
you recognize him?" He quickly adds"...think hard before
giving me a stupid answer."
The blonde looks at the picture intently for a moment and
says, "Hmmmm ... the suspect wears contact lenses."
The policeman is surprised and speechless because he
really doesn't know himself if the suspect wears contacts
or not. "Well, that's an interesting answer ... wait here
for a few minutes while I check his file and I'll get back
to you on that."
He leaves the room and goes to his office, checks the
suspect's file in his computer, and comes back with a
beaming smile on his face. "Wow! I can't believe it ...
it's TRUE! The suspect does in fact wear contact lenses.
Good work! How were you able to make such an astute
observation?"
"That's easy," the blonde replied. "He can't wear regular
glasses because he only has one eye and one ear."
