- (continued from previous page)other one was white.
The two black men ate the white man what was the number of the motor car. Two ate one.
What is it that a rich man wants, a poor man has and a blind man sees and a deaf man hears. Nothing.

When is a queen a piece of timber. When she is a ruler.
When is a penknife noisy. When it will not shut up.
