This one might be old, but it's funny, so here goes.....

(BTW, think about it - don't tell me you don't understand it!).

- Did you hear about the architect who had his house made
backwards, so he could watch T.V. at the same time?

(Say it a few times.....).

Try it this way:

- Did you hear about the architect who had his housemaid

backwards, so he could watch T.V. at the same time?

NOW do you get it?

Yeah, and like any self-respecting architect, he didn't really build the house
himself. He just designed it. He hired people to do the actual construction.

He started out with a battery-powered television, and a martini, and a housemaid
who didn't mind being entered doggie style with all that construction dust around.

The construction workers didn't mind the scenery either.
