SMART COOKIES

TWO broke and hungry best friends, Dave and John, go to a pastry shop. With lightning speed Dave suddenly whisks three biscuits from the counter into his pocket. The baker doesn’t notice.

“See how clever I am?” Dave whispers to John. “You’ll never beat that!”

“Oh yeah? Watch this,” John replies. He then says to the baker: “If you give me a biscuit, I can show you a magic trick!”

The baker hands him a biscuit, which he promptly eats. Then he says to the baker: “I’ll need another biscuit before I can perform my magic trick.”

The baker is getting suspicious, but he gives it to him. He eats this one too. Then John says again: “Give me one more biscuit for the magic trick.” The baker is getting angry now, but gives him one anyway. He eats this one too.

Now the baker is really mad: “So, where is your magic trick?”

John points at Dave and says: “In that guy’s pocket!”
