Laugh a little
You can't fool me
Four Yeshiva buchers were taking a course in the Talmud together and all four had managed to earn A's so far. They were so confident of passing Monday morning's final exam that they decided to visit some friends in another town on the Sunday, do some all-night partying, then leave to get back in time. But they overdid it and slept soundly on the Sunday night and thus didn't make it back until Monday afternoon.
After discussing their predicament, all four decided to go to the Rabbi that afternoon with the same story - that they had visited some friends out of town, but on the way back their car developed a flat tire and they therefore couldn't help missing the final exam. After hearing their story, the Rabbi agreed they could take the final the next day. The students were relieved and all studied diligently that night for the exam.
The next day the Rabbi placed them in separate rooms, giving each of them an exam booklet. All four of them were able to answer the first question, worth 5 points. "A mekheiyeh," each one thought, "this exam is going to be easy."
Then they turned the page and written on the second page was the second question: -
"For 95 points, which tire was it that developed a flat?
Yeshiva buchers: A yeshiva student; a gullible or inexperienced person
Talmud: A massive compilation of writing, forming the basic body of Jewish laws & traditions
A mekheiyeh: A pleasure
