A millionaire GrandMaster always had a party every year for his new Black Belts to challenge them. As they were gathered around the huge swimming pool the GrandMaster said, "This pool is filled with man-eating sharks; anyone brave enough to jump in and swim all the way across can have one of three things: my lovely daughter in marriage, half my liquid cash or all my oil wells." Just then he heard a loud splash and turned to see a young Black Belt swimming frantically across the pool and coming out the other side with only torn clothing.
"Amazing", he said, "you're the first one to ever try it. What do you want...
"My daughter?"
"No", replied the student.
"Half my liquid cash?"
"No", he replied.
"Ahh, then all my oil wells?"
"No", replied the student.
"Then what do you want?" the GrandMaster asked.
The young man replied, "I want to know who the Hell pushed me in the pool!!!!" |
