This guy is at a train station and he has half an hour to kill so he's
bored and he's wandering around and he sees one of thsoe old-fashioned
scales which gives you a fortune. So he thinks, what the heck, and he
goes over to it and puts in a quarter and stands on it, and a card pops
out which says "your name is David Roth, you're Jewish, and you
weight 162 pounds". And as it happens, his name is David Roth and he
is Jewish, and he is totally amazed. So he goes over to the ticket
window, and asks the teller if he can give the scale a try, so the
teller stands on it and his card says "you're name is Richard Miller,
you're half Irish, and you weigh 190 pounds." and the teller assures
him that this is correct. And they are both really amazed and puzzled,
so they wander arund the station looking for someone to fool the scale.
They finally find a guy who is half russian and half australian
aborigine, and has a wooden arm. And this guy stands on the scale puts
in his quarter, and his card reads "your name is sergei Goolagong, you
have a wooden arm, you're half russian and half australian aborigine,
and you weight 193 pounds". And they are all flabbergasted. So David
Roth (the first guy) gets really puzzled and tries to figure out how to
fool the scale, so he remembers a friend of his who is one quarter
lithuanian, one quarter american indian, one quarter german and one
quarter hottentot, and is a midget" So he drives off to find her , and
she agrees to come stand on the scale, and when she does, she puts in a
quarter and gets a card which says "your name is Moonbeam Steiner, you
are a midget, you are one quarter lithuanian, one quarter american
indian, one quarter german and one quarter hottentot,
and you weigh 103 pounds". So David Roth thinks for a while and then
says, wait, get back on the scale. So she does, and then he stands on
the scale next to her, and he puts in a quarter. And out pop two
cards. One says "your name is Moonbeam Steiner, you are a midget, you
are one quarter lithuanian, one quarter american indian, one quarter
german and one quarter hottentot, and you weigh 103 pounds". The other
card says "your name is David Roth, you're Jewish, you weigh 162
pounds, and you just missed your train"
