不能讓他跑了
一隻雄蟹遇到了一隻雌蟹,便向她求婚。雌蟹發現他是直著走路,而不是橫著走。她心想,這隻雄蟹真是與眾不同,我可不能讓他跑了。於是他們很快就結婚了。
第二天,雌蟹發現她的新郎走起路來和普通螃蟹一樣。她便疑惑重重。“你怎麼了?”她問,“我們結婚之前你可是直著走路的。”
“哦,寶貝,”他回答說,“我不可能每天都喝那麼多啊。”
I Can’t Let Him Get away
A male crab met a female crab and asked her to marry him。 She noticed that he was walking straight instead of sideways。 Wow; she thought; this crab is really special。 I can’t let him get away。 So they got married immediately。
The next day she noticed her new husband walking sideways like all the other crabs; and got upset。 “What happened?” she asked。“You used to walk straight before we were married。”
“Oh; honey;” he replied; “I can’t drink that much every day。”

聖彼得又問猶太承包商的估價,在經過了一番仔細的勘察後,猶太人說道:“需要3000美圓——1000美圓的材料,1000美圓的勞務費,1000美圓的利潤。”
當聖彼得問義大利人的估價時,義大利人完全沒有作任何調查就脫口而出:“2600美圓。”聖彼得問他是怎樣得出這個數字的,義大利人回答說:“非常簡單,1000美圓給你,1000美圓給我,還有600美圓找一個低價的競標者來做這份工作。”
