MENSA CONVENTION

Mensa is an organization whose members have an IQ of 140, or higher. A few years ago, there was a Mensa convention in San Francisco and several members lunched at a local cafe. While dining, they discovered that their saltshaker contained pepper and their pepper shaker was full of salt.

How could they swap the contents of the bottles without spilling using only the implements at hand? Clearly this was a job for Mensa! The group debated and presented ideas and finally came up with a brilliant solution involving a napkin, a straw and an empty saucer. They called the waitress over to dazzle her with their solution.

"Ma'am," - they said, - "we couldn't help but notice that the pepper shaker contains salt and the salt shaker..."

"Oh," - the waitress interrupted. "Sorry about that."

She unscrewed the caps of both bottles and switched them.

POPULATION CONTROL

On his birthday, the scrooge decided to go to a restaurant. The check for the plentiful meal he consumed totaled $49.70, for which he paid with a $50 bill. The busy waitress thanked him, put the money into the cash register and continued with her other duties. A little later, when she looked towards the man’s table, she saw that he was still sitting there. She went over to him and asked:

“Is there anything else you wish, Sir?”

“I am waiting for my change,” - replied the scrooge.

The waitress returned to the cash register and after a while brought a saucer with 30 cents and a small package. The scrooge put the change into his purse, opened the package and found that it contains a package of condoms.

“What is that for?” - asked the astonished man.

“I suggest that you use it,” - answered the angry waitress, - “types like you should not multiply.”
