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 side
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 side
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."
