How much is a dead horse worth?
One farmer went to the market to sell one of his horses for $2,000 and found a buyer without any problem. He promised that he would deliver the horse to him within one week, but sadly the horse passed away in the middle of the week.
The farmer promised to return the buyer's money, but the buyer chose to accept the horse as it was anyway. The following week, the farmer met the same buyer again at the market and asked him what he had done with the dead horse he had bought.
The buyer told him: "I did a raffle with an entry fee of $50, and whoever won got the horse. 100 people participated, and that's how I collected $5,000. The farmer was stunned and asked, "What, and no one was upset to find out that the horse was dead?" The buyer replied, "Only the winner, so I gave him back his $50."
Hat – stupid
One stormy day, Rebbe was walking down the street when suddenly a strong wind blew the hat off his head. The Rebbe chased the hat, but the wind was too strong. She swept his hat far away, until a young man who saw what had happened also started chasing the hat, grabbed it and handed it back to the Rebbe. The Rebbe was grateful, gave the young man a $20 bill and blessed him.
The young man was so excited, And decided to go gambling on horses with the rabbi's blessing. He looked at the list of horses and put the entire $20 on one horse.
After he finished gambling, he came home and told his father everything that happened. "... I looked at the list of horses, and there was a Polish horse named Streimel whose chances of winning were 1 in 100, but since I got the rabbi's blessing I put all the $20 he brought me on it, and guess what... He won!
The next race had an American horse named Hat with odds of 1-30, so I put all the winnings on him, and guess what... I won here too!" "So where's the money?" his father asked. "I lost it all in the last race..." The son said. "There was a French horse named 'Chateau' on the list with odds of 1 to 5 that I put all the winnings on. Because 'Chateau' in French is a hat, I thought it would be the right choice."
"Idiot!" shouted his father, "Chateau is a mansion, his nose is a hat!" The father was furious, and after calming down a bit, he asked, "So who won the race?" The son replied, "What one Spanish horse that no one expected to have a chance – 'Sombrero'...
The pigeon that learned to play checkers
One day, Yossi came by surprise to his friend Danny's house, and saw him sitting at the table in the yard with a checkers board and a pigeon standing in front of him on the other side.
"Tell me, what are you doing?" asked a surprised Yossi. "What do you mean?" replied Danny, "I'm teaching this pigeon to play checkers!" "Are you serious?" replied Yossi, "It's the strangest thing I've heard in my whole life." "Why weird? It's very simple," Danny said in response. "Listen, it's crazy, a pigeon that plays checkers for sure should be the smartest pigeon in the world!" said Yossi. "She's actually not that smart... "Out of 10 games we played, she only beat me twice."
