Presence of mind Peter, the Carpenter, returning home with his weeks wages, was accosted by an armed robber on a deserted street. Take my money, said Peter, but do me a favour: shoot a bullet through my hat otherwise my wife wont believe I was robbed. The robber obliged. He threw Peters hat into the air and put a bullet through it. Let s make it look as if I ran into a gang of robbers, said Peter, otherwise my wife will call me a coward! Please shoot a number of holes through my coat. So the robber shot a number of holes through the carpenter s coat. And now Sorry, interrupted the robber. No more holes. Im out of bullets. Thats all I wanted to know! said Peter. Now hand me back my money and some more for the hat and coat that youve ruined or Ill beat you black and blue! The robber threw down the money and ran. Moral of the Story: Its never too late to use our brains to get out of a difficult situation!! Mijak
