Three blondes were all applying for the last available position on the Texas
Highway Patrol. The detective conducting the interview looked at the three
of them and said, "So y'all want to be cops, huh?"
The blondes all nodded.
The detective got up, opened a file drawer, and pulled out a folder. Sitting
back down, he opened it, pulled out a picture, and said, "To be a detective,
you have to be able to detect. You must be able to notice things such as
distinguishing features and oddities like scars and so forth."
So saying, he stuck the photo in the face of the first blonde and withdrew
it after about two seconds. "Now," he said, "did you notice any
distinguishing features about this man?"
The blonde immediately said, "Yes, I did. He has only one eye!"
The detective shook his head and said, "Of course he has only one eye in
this picture! It's a profile of his face! You're dismissed!"
The first blonde hung her head and walked out of the office.
The detective then turned to the second blonde, stuck the photo in her face
for two seconds, pulled it back, and said, "What about you? Notice anything
unusual or outstanding about this man?"
"Yes! He only has one ear!"
The detective put his head in his hands and exclaimed, "Didn't you hear what
I just told the other lady? This is a profile of the man's face! Of course
you can only see one ear! You're excused too!"
The second blonde sheepishly walked out of the office.
The detective turned his attention to the third and last blonde and said,
"This is probably a waste of time, but..." He flashed the photo in her face
for a couple of seconds and withdrew it, saying, "All right, did you notice
anything distinguishing or unusual about this man?"
The blonde said, "I sure did. This man wears contact lenses." The detective
frowned, took another look at the picture, and began looking at some of the
papers in the folder. He looked up at the blonde with a puzzled expression and said, "You're absolutely right! His bio says he wears contacts! How in the world
could you tell that by looking at his picture?"
The blonde rolled her eyes and said, "Well, Hellooooooooooooo! With only one
eye and one ear, he certainly can't wear glasses."
