Twenty
years
Three
guys are convicted of a very serious crime, and they're all sentenced
to twenty years in solitary confinement. They're each allowed
one thing to bring into the cell with them.
The first
guy asks for a big stack of books. The second guy asks for his
wife. And the third guy asks for two hundred cartons of cigarettes.
At the end of the twenty years, they open up the first guy's
cell. He comes out and says, "I studied so hard. I'm so bright
now, I could be a lawyer. It was terrific."
They open up the second guy's door. He comes out with his wife,
and they've got five new kids.
He says. "It was the greatest thing of my life.
My wife and I have never been so close. I have a beautiful new
family. I love it. "They open up the third guy's door, and
he's slapping at his pockets, going "Anybody got a match?"
