Here is a tale of cigarettes. An Arab gentleman had a fleet of camels that traded across the Sahara Desert. He received an order to transport a parcel from one village to another along with other parcels of goods. Off started the 3 camels forming the train and all went well for a week. Suddenly the man leading the train heard 1-2-3-4 with each step the camels took .This went on all the time for 2weeks and drove the man so mad that he shot the last camel in the train. loading the goods onto the remaining camels. All went well for another week and the counting started again. 1-2-3-4- the camel driver got mad and shot the second camel ,loading all the goods onto the remaining camel. Man ,camel and goods arrived exhausted at their destination and the man told a crowd that had gathered what had happened . One man stepped forward and said my parcel has arrived then The camel driver said how do you know I have a parcel for you. Aha said the man its my Players cigarettes that you have brought and the advert is right ITS THE TOBACCO THAT COUNTS!! Sorry about that could not resist. Rupert. |
