A Joke To End 2011

Posted on 27/12/2011 by admin

So you think someone is in charge of the universe?

 

…………………………………….

 

Saul is working in his store when he hears a booming voice from above:

“Saul, sell your business.” He ignores it. It goes on for days. “Saul, sell your business for $3 million.”

After weeks of this, he relents, sells his store. The voice says “Saul, go to Las Vegas.” He asks

“Why?”

“Saul, just take the $3 million to Las Vegas.” He obeys, goes to a casino. Voice says,

“Saul , go to the blackjack table and put it down all on one hand.” He hesitates but knows he must. He’s dealt an 18. The dealer has a six showing.

“Saul, take a card.”

What? The dealer has me beat!”

“Take a card!” He tells the dealer to hit him. Saul gets an ace. Nineteen. He breathes easy.

“Saul, take another card.”

“What?”

“TAKE ANOTHER CARD!” He asks for another card. It’s another ace. He has twenty.

“Saul, take another card,” the voice commands.

“I have twenty!” Saul shouts.

“TAKE ANOTHER CARD!” booms the voice. Hit me,Saul says. He gets another ace. Twenty one. The booming voice goes,

“Un-fucking-believable!”
