Bob Brunner feels like he deals with idiots every day.


An idiot and his smart friend met in a bar after work for a drink, and were watching the 6 O'clock news. A man was shown threatening to jump from the Brooklyn Bridge. The idiot bet his friend $50 that he wouldn't jump, and his friend replied, "I'll take that bet!"

Anyway, sure enough, he jumped, so the idiot gave his friend the $50 he owed. His friend said, "I can't take this, you're my friend." The idiot insisted: "No. A bet's a bet."

Finally, his friend said, "Listen, I have to admit, I saw this on the 5 O'clock News, so I can't take your money."

The idiot replied, "Well, so did I, but I never thought he'd jump again!"
