The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news.After a great length of time,someone asked,tell,how much does a brain cost?" The doctor quickly responded,"$5,000 for a male brain,and $200 for a female brain." The moment turned awkward.Men in the room tried not to smile,avoiding eye contact with the women,but some actually looked.A man,unable to control his curiosity,blurted out the question everyone wanted to ask,"Why is the male brain so much more?" The doctor smiled at the childish innocence and so to the entire group said,"It's just standard pricing procedure.We have to mark down the price of the female brains,because they've been used."

A Bet
Two pals are sitting in a pub watching the eleven-'clock news.A reporter comes on about a man threatening to jump from the 20th floor of a downtown building.One friend turns to the other and says,'I'll bet you ten bucks the guy doesn't jump.'
'It's a bet,' agrees his buddy.
A few minutes later, the man on the ledge jumps,so the loser hands his pal a $10 bill.'I can't take your money,'his friend admits.'I saw him jump earlier on the six-o'clock news.'
'Me,too,'says the other buddy.'But I didn't think he'd do it again.
打赌
两个好朋友正坐在一家小酒馆内观看十一点的电视新闻。一则新闻报道说，有个男人威胁要从商业区一座大楼的二十层跳下去。一位朋友转身对另一位说道：“我敢赌十块钱，那家伙不会往下跳。”
“赌就赌，”他的朋友欣然同意。
几分钟后，站在墙檐上的男人跳了下去，因而赌输的那位交给他的朋友一张十元的钞票。“我不能拿你的钱，”他的朋友承认道，“早在六点的新闻里，我就已见他跳下去了。”
“我也是，”另一位说，“可我想他不会再跳了！”
