The arabian spy joke
One time a Persian King and his army caught a spy in the
middle of the desert.
The King said to the spy, "You know, I am in a good mood today, so I am
going to give you a chance to live."
The spy says, "Whatever you want me to do, just tell me, and I'll
do it."
The King replies, "I am going to give you three tests, and if you pass
these tests, then I will set you free. But no one
has ever passed these tests, so why don't you just
let me kill you now?"
"Oh no, please give me the tests."
"Ok," (to the guards), "bring him to me early in the morning."
The next morning the guards brought
the spy to the king in the middle of the
desert, and there were three tents set up next to one another.
The King said, "In the first tent there is a 50-gallon jug of wine.
You have to drink all of the wine in 1 min, 30 secs,
without spilling a single drop. If there is any left
in the jug, or if there is any spilled on you or the
ground, I will immediately kill you. No one has ever
done this, so why don't you just let me kill you now?"
"Oh, no. I'll take the test."
The King said, "Now if you happen to pass the first test, although
no one ever has," (pointing to the second tent), "in there
is a raging lioness with an impacted wisdom tooth.
You have 1 minute to extract the tooth from the lioness,
and give it to me. Now as soon as you enter the tent,
the lioness is going to have you for dinner, so why don't
you just let me kill you now?"
"Oh no. I'll take the test."
The King said, "Now if you happen to pass the first two tests, although
no one ever has," (pointing to the third tent), "in there
if a nymphomaniac who has never been satisfied.
You have but 30 seconds to please her every desire. If
she still wants more after that, I'll immediately kill
you. Now, no man could possibly do this, so why don't
you let me kill you now?"
"No, I'll take the tests."
So the spy enters the first tent. Chugging sounds
emerge from the tent,
and amazing as it seems, he emerges from the tent
after 1 min and 28 seconds.
Guards check him and the tent, and sure enough,
he had drunk all of the wine.
Now the guards push the staggering spy into the second tent.
Immediatly a huge roar comes from the tent
and the King says, "Well, that is
all for that guy, but let's stay around and see."
About 30 seconds a faint
growl comes from the tent, and 45 seconds in to the minute,
a contented
purr comes from the tent.
After 55 seconds, the drunken spy comes
staggering from the tent and says,
"Okay, where is the chic with the impacted wisdom tooth?"
