 Rope or Ox 1


  The man in the prison 2 asked a new comer why he was sent there. The new comer answered: I am out of luck, I think. A few days ago I was walking in the street when I saw a piece of dirty rope. I thought nobody wanted it and so I picked it up and took it home. 
  But it is not against the law to pick up a piece of rope and take home! 
  I told you I had bad luck, didn't I? the man sighed 3, The trouble is that I didn't notice there was an ox at the other end of that rope. 
  绳子还是公牛? 
  在监狱里,一个人问新来的犯人为什么被关进来。新来的犯人回答说:我想我真是倒霉。几天前我在街上走的时候,看到一根脏绳子,以为没人要了,便捡起来带了回家。 
  但是,捡一根绳子带回家并不犯法啊! 
  我告诉过你我倒霉了吧?那个人叹了口气,麻烦的就是我没有注意到绳子的那一头还有一头公牛。
