A contestant on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?" had reached the final
plateau. If she answered the next question correctly, she would win
$1,000,000. If she answered incorrectly, she would pocket only the
$25,000 milestone money.
And as she suspected it would be, the million-dollar
question was no pushover. It was, "Which of the following species of
birds does not build its own nest, but instead lays its eggs in the nests of
other birds? Is it:
A) the condor
B) the buzzard
C) the cuckoo
D) the vulture
The woman was on the spot. She did not know the answer. And she was
doubly on the spot because she had used up her 50/50 Lifeline and her Audience
Poll Lifeline. All that remained was her Phone-a-Friend Lifeline. The
woman hoped she would not have to use it because ...
Her friend was, well--blonde. She had no alternative. She
called her friend and gave her the question and the four choices. The
blonde responded unhesitatingly: "That's easy. The answer is C: the
cuckoo." The contestant had to make a decision and make it fast. She
considered employing a reverse strategy and giving Merideth any answer
except the one that her friend had given her. And considering that her
friend was a blonde, that would seem to be the logical thing to do. But
her friend had responded with such confidence, such certitude, that the
contestant could not help but be persuaded.
"I need an answer," said Merideth. Crossing her fingers, the contestant
said, "C: The cuckoo."
"Is that your final answer?"
"Yes, that is my final answer."
Two minutes later, Merideth said,
"That answer is ........................ Absolutely correct!
You are now a millionaire!
Three days later, the contestant hosted a party for her family and
friends, including the blonde who h ad helped her win the million dollars.
"Jeni, I just do not know how to thank you," said the contestant. "How did you
happen to know the right answer?"
"Oh, come on," said the blonde...
"Everybody knows that cuckoos don't build nests.
They live in clocks."

'Visually'; that's an stunning humorous tale. i've got self assurance that one and all 3 ('Fatboy', the non-footballing tattooed 'type' who scored a objective against the Greeks - having consequently mutated into the 'grasp and Commander' of the 'banal', and, stable old Jermain) could see the humorous area. what's approximately to be 'stated' as unacceptable by utilising the electorate, is, "political correctness." Irish jokes are humorous. comparable as Polish jokes (in u.s.), Black humour (Eddie Murphy on gays, Chris Rock on Puerto Ricans), Turkish jokes on Greeks and vice-versa, chinese language drivers, Jewish humour (collectively with "come to Israel and notice the Pyramids") etc.....etc. charm the violation upon account of unfairness, unreasonableness, and pettiness, and, get your factors restored.
