"Now," he said, "did you notice any distinguishing features about this man?"
The Spud Islander immediately said, "Yes, I did, he has only one eye!"
The detective shook his head and said, "Of course he has only one eye in this picture! It's a profile of his face! You're dismissed!"
The Islander hung his head and walked out of the office.
The detective then turned to the second boy from Nova Scotia, stuck the photo in his face for two seconds, pulled it back, and said, "What about you? Notice anything unusual or outstanding about this man?"
"Yes! He only has one ear!"
The detective put his head in his hands and exclaimed, "Didn't you hear what I just told the other guy?
This is a profile of the man's face! Of course you can only see one ear! You're excused too!"
The Bluenoser sheepishly walked out of the office.
The detective turned his attention to the last boy, a hometown Newfie boy with a long family history in Newfoundland and said, "This is probably a waste of time, but...."
He flashed the photo in his face for a couple of seconds and withdrew it, saying, "All right, did you notice anything distinguishing or unusual about this man?"
The Newfie said, "I sure did. This man wears contact lenses."
The detective frowned, took another look at the picture, and began looking at some of the papers in the folder. He looked up at the Newfie with a puzzled expression and said, "You're absolutely right!
The Newfie rolled his eyes and said, "Well, Hellooooooo! With only one eye and one ear, ... he certainly can't wear glasses."
Lol
LOL.
I literally LOLed, that was cute, and I ain’t even Canadian.
Thank you so much! Laughed so hard, I got tears in my eyes.
Pretty funny, thanks for the LOL!
My favourite Newfie phrases:
Lard tunderin’ jaysus, me son, if’n I ‘ad a face de likes a yers, I’be be shavin’ me arse and walkin’ back’ards!
and
Don’t be eatin’ the red’uns; they’s green! (In reference to blueberries.)
I’d encourage any Yank here to visit Newfoundland in August/September for a holiday you’ll never forget. Ask anyone on a plane diverted there on 9/11!
Ha!
Thanks for posting, there is no such thing as too much fun.
Being a Southern Hillbilly, I was awed by the unique natural beauty of all three and very fortunate to have visited there the week they had summer.
