1. A ninety-year-old man went to the doctor and said, “Doctor, my eighteen-year-old


wife is expecting a baby.”

The doctor said, “Let me tell you a story. A man went hunting, but instead of a gun, he
picked up an umbrella by mistake. When a bear charged at the man, he picked up the
umbrella, shot the bear, and killed it.”

The man said, “Impossible. Someone else must have shot that bear.”

The doctor said, “My point, exactly!”

2. A seeker has heard that the wiest guru in all of India lives atop India’s highest mountain.

So the seeker treks over hills until he reaches the fabled mountain. It is incredibly steep,

and more than once he slips and falls. By the time he reaches the top, he is full of cuts and

bruises, but there is the guru, sitting cross-legged in front of his cave.

“O, wise guru”, the seeker says, “I have come to you to ask what the secret of life is.”

“Ah, yes, the secret of life,” the guru says. “The secret of life is a tea cup.”

“A tea cup? I came all the way up here to find the meaning of life, and you tell me it’s a
tea cup!”

The guru shrugs, “So maybe it isn’t a tea cup.”
