....Because there's twenty of them!

OK, this won't work in print, but it will be funny if you try it on your coworkers. Ask them this question:

If a farmer has twenty sick sheep and one dies, how many are left?

No matter how carefully you say this, if you don't put pauses between the words the person you ask will hear this question:

If a farmer has twenty-six sheep and one dies, how many are left?

They will answer 25 and go nuts when you tell them the correct answer is 19. If you can get someone in on the joke to give you the correct answer after you've old several people, "No, try again" you can have some real fun.

Try it.

Shalom.
