"Well, why don't you go home and work on that one for a while?" |

The local sheriff was
looking for a deputy, so Gomer, who was not exactly the sharpest nail in the
bucket, went in to try out for the job.
"Okay," the sheriff drawled,
"Gomer, what is 1 and 1?"
"11" he replied.
The sheriff thought to
himself, "That's not what I meant, but he's right. What two days of the week
start with the letter 'T'?"
"Today and tomorrow."
The sheriff was
again surprised that Gomer supplied a correct answer that he had never thought
of himself.
"Now Gomer, listen carefully: Who killed Abraham
Lincoln?"
Gomer looked a little surprised himself, then thought really
hard for a minute and finally admitted, "I don't know."
"Well, why don't
you go home and work on that one for a while?"
So, Gomer wandered over to
the barbershop where his pals were waiting to hear the results of the interview.
Gomer was exultant. "It went great! First day on the job and I'm already working
on a murder case!"
