The Riddle
Published Jan 01, 1900
One day, Rob was sitting in a store in Chicago. A Chinese man came up to him and asked "Do you like riddles?" Rob replied, "Boy, I sure do!"
So the Chinese man asked, "My mother and father had a baby, it wasn't my brother and it wasn't my sister, who was it?"
Rob sat there and scratched his head and for the life of him, couldn't figure it out. So he says, "I give up, who was it?".
The Chinese man replied, "It was me you dummy!"
Rob couldn't wait until he returned back to Ohio to try this riddle out on his friends.
One evening, Rob, Kirsty and lyn were sitting down having a coke, when Rob said, "Hey guys, I've got a riddle for you. My mother and father had a baby, it wasn't my brother and it wasn't my sister, who was it?"
Lyn blurted out, "It was you, dummy!"
Rob replies:
"No you idiot, it was some Chinese guy in Chicago!"
