One day a Jew, a Hindu, and a Man United fan all arrived at their hotel to
find that there had been a mix-up with the bookings, and that there was only
one room left for them to share. The manager explained that this room only
had two beds, but that there was a barn at a neighboring farm which the
farmer, an old friend of his, would let one of them sleep in free of charge.
They complained a bit, but since there was nowhere else to go, the Jew
graciously said he'd sleep in the barn. The Hindu and the United fan were
just settling down to sleep in their room, when there was a knock on the
door. It was the Jew. "I'm sorry," he said, "but there's a pig in that barn
and because I'm Jewish I feel uncomfortable about sharing the barn with it."
"No problem," said the Hindu. "I'll sleep out there instead." So off he went
to the barn, leaving the United fan and the Jew to share the room. They were
just settling down to sleep, when there was a knock on the door. It was the
Hindu.
"I'm sorry," he said, "but there's a cow in that barn and because I'm a
Hindu I feel uncomfortable about sharing the barn with it." The United fan
grudgingly agreed to give up his bed and stomped off to the barn, leaving
the Jew and the Hindu to share the room. The Jew and the Hindu were just
settling down to sleep, when there was a knock on the
door.........
It was the cow and the pig.
