A man came upon a construction worker putting together a house of bricks. The construction worker had been working hard all day and was getting close to finishing up. But the man kept asking pointless question after pointless question delaying him so now it was after quitting time and he still had things to do.
So, what was his answer when the man asked, "How many bricks does it take to complete this building, anyways?"

He probably told the man to count the bricks to give him something to do while he was finishing up instead of asking questions.
ReplyDeleteThe same number!

Only one, if his aim is good and he throws hard enough. Or if he can fit it in the other guy's mouth.

It only takes 'one' to finish the building.
