Two Candidates
Source unknown
A sidewalk interviewer asked a retired man what he thought of the two candidates for an election. Three men were arguing over which profession was the oldest. Said the surgeon: "The Bible says Eve was made by carving a rib out of Adam. I guess that makes mine the oldest profession." "Not at all," said the engineer. "In six days the earth was created out of chaos&md;and that was an engineer's job." After giving what he considered a stirring, fact-filled campaign speech, the candidate looked out at this audience and confidently asked, "Now are there any questions?" "Yes," came a voice from the back of the room. "Who else is running?"
"When I look at them," the retired man replied, "I'm thankful only one of them can get elected."
