The world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make is
taking a stroll down his local high street. As he passes by the record
shop, a sign catches his eye. "Just Released -New LP -Wasps of the
World & the sounds that they make - available now"
Unable to resist the temptation, the man goes into the shop. "I am the
world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make. I'd very
much like to listen to the new LP you have advertised in the window."
"Certainly, Sir," says the young man behind the counter. "If you'd
like to step into the booth and put on the headphones, I'll put the LP
on for you."
The world expert on European wasps goes into the booth and puts on the earphones.
Ten minutes later, he comes out of the booth and announces, "I am the
world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make and yet I
recognised none of those."
"I'm sorry Sir", says the young assistant. "If you'd care to step into
the booth, I can let you have another 10 minutes." The world expert on
European wasps and the sounds that they make steps back into the booth
and replaces the headphones.
Ten minutes later, he comes out of the booth shaking his head. "I don't
understand it", he says, "I am the world expert on European wasps and
the sounds that they make, and yet I still can't recognise any of
those!"
"I'm terribly sorry, Sir" says the young man, "perhaps if you'd like to
step into the booth again, you could have 5 more minutes." Sighing, the
world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make steps back
into the booth.
Five minutes later, he comes out again, clearly agitated. "I am the
world expert on European wasps and the sounds that they make and yet I
have recognised none of the wasps on this LP."
"I really am terribly sorry", says the young assistant, "I've just
realised I was playing you the bee side...
Boom boom! :dance: :tongue2: :dance:
