Joke No. 200

Do You Have The Time?

A man had been driving all night, and by morning, was still
far from his destination. He decided to stop at the next city
he came to, and park somewhere quiet so he could get an
hour or two of sleep.

As luck would have it, the quiet place he chose happened to
be on one of the city's major jogging routes. No sooner had
he settled back to snooze, when there came a knocking on
his window. He looked out and saw a jogger running in place.
"Excuse me, sir," the jogger said, "do you have the time?"

The man looked at the car clock and answered, "Eight fifteen."

The jogger said thanks and left. The man settled back again,
and was just dozing off, when there was another knock on the
window and another jogger asked, "Excuse me, sir, do you
have the time?"

The man was a little irritated and growled, "It's twenty minutes
past eight!" The jogger thanked the man and left.

Now the man could see other joggers passing by and he knew
it was only a matter of time before another one disturbed him.
To avoid the problem, he got out a pen and paper and put a
sign in his window saying, "I do not know the time!"

Once again he settled back to sleep. He was just dozing off,
when there was another knock on the window. Another jogger
said, "Sir, it's eight thirty."
