Three Blondes were all applying for
the last available position on the
Texas Highway Patrol.
The
detective conducting the interview looked at
the three of them and said, "So y'all want to be cops, huh?"
The blondes all nodded.
The detective got up, opened a file drawer and pulled out a
folder.
Sitting back down, he opened it and pulled out a picture, and
said, "To
be a police officer, you have to be able to detect. You must
be able to
notice things such as distinguishing features and oddities
such as scars
and so forth."
So saying, he stuck the photo in the face of the first blonde
and
withdrew it after about two seconds. "Now," he said, "did you
notice any
distinguishing features about this man?"
The blonde immediately said, "Yes, I did. He has only one
eye!"
The detective shook his head and said, "Of course he has only
one eye in
this picture! It's a profile of his face! You're dismissed!"
The first blonde hung her head and walked out of the office.
The
detective then turned to the second blonde, stuck the photo in
her face
for two seconds pulled it back and said, "What about you?
Notice
anything unusual or outstanding about this man?"
"Yes! He only has one ear!"
The detective put his head in his hands and exclaimed, "Didn't
you hear
what I just told the other lady? This is a profile of the
man's face! Of
course you can only see one ear! You're excused too!"
The second blonde sheepishly walked out of the office.
The detective turned his attention to the third and last
blonde and
said, This is probably a waste of time, but......" He flashed
the photo
in her face for a couple of seconds and withdrew it, saying,
"All right, did
you notice anything distinguishing or unusual about this man?"
The
blonde said, "I sure did. This man wears contact lenses."
The detective frowned, took another look at the picture and
began
looking at some of the papers in the folder. He looked up at
the blonde
with a puzzled _expression and said, "You're absolutely right!
His bio
says he wears contacts! How in the world could you tell that
by looking
at his picture?"
The blonde rolled her eyes and said,
"Well,
Helloooo! With only one eye and one ear, he
certainly can't wear glasses."
