The town fathers were looking for a way to increase attendance and
participation at their regular meetings. One member suggested bringing
in a hypnotist. The officials agreed, a famous hypnotist was hired,
publicity distributed, and everyone was pleased.
A few weeks later the meeting hall was packed, and the town's people
sat fascinated as the hypnotist withdrew a pocket watch. The hypnotist
began chanting... "Watch the watch, watch the watch, watch the watch..."
The crowd became mesmerized as the watch swayed back and forth, light
gleaming off its polished surface. Hundreds of pairs of eyes followed
the swaying watch, until suddenly the hypnotist's fingers slipped and
the watch fell to the floor...
"Sh!t" said the hypnotist.
It took three weeks to clean up the town hall.
