1. The woodcutter There was
a woodcutter who was using his axe
to cut down trees. At the best of
times he managed to cut down six
trees per day. At one point he saw
an advertisement of a guy who could
cut down 100 trees per day with the help of
a mashine.
- " If I had this tool I could do
a great job" , he thought. " The very next
day the man had bought the tool. He
used it at once and cut down 8 trees".
- "What the f**k ?", he
thought."According to the ad you can
cut down up to 100 trees! How come
I cut only 8? Tomorrow I'll try hardewr''. The
next day he tried harder and cut
down only 10 trees. '' What the f**k is
going on ? I don't get it !" He looked at the ad
again and noticed that the guy who
was cutting the trees was a well-built, muscly
man.
-"Ahh!! That's it" he thought, "
I have to exercise and build up muscles"
. So he started exercising and did
weight-lifting. He tried the machine again but
he only managed to cut down 25
trees. The guy have had enough, so he took the
machine back to the salesman and said:
- " Hey, pal, what you have gave me is not
working properly. At the best of times it
can cut down 25 trees".
- "Do you use it correctly?", the
salesman answered.
- "Let me see myself" the
salesman said and pulled the string of the crank
as it was a chain machine and
in a few seconds he had cut
down the tree.
- "Hey! Wait a minute" the
woodcutter responded "Show me again
the trick you did with the string!..."
