  1. Once upon a time two men were walking along the road, one was Jim the other was Jack. Jim was a wise cracker, one day he said to Jack do you want that button, pointing to his coat, "Oh yes" said Jack and JIm pulled the button off the coat, and handed it to him. They had walked on another bit and Jack said to Jim "do you want that button?" No said Jim, and Jack pulled the button off the coat and threw it away. Ah, ha ha
