A certain zoo had acquired a very rare
species of gorilla. Within a few weeks the gorilla, a female, became very ornery,
and difficult to handle. Upon examination, the zoo veterinarian determined the
problem: she was in heat. What to do? There was no male of this
species available.
While reflecting on their problem, the zoo
administrators noticed Dave, an employee responsible for cleaning the animals'
cages. Now Dave, it was rumored, possessed ample ability to satisfy any female, and
he wasn't very bright. So the zoo administrators thought they might have a solution.
Perhaps they could entice Dave to satisfy the female gorilla.
So he was approached with a
proposition: Would he be willing to have sex with the gorilla -- for five hundred
bucks? Dave replied that he might be interested, but would have to think the matter
over.
The following day, Dave announced that he
would accept their offer, but only under three conditions:
"First," he said,
"I don't want to have to kiss her."
"Second, I want nothing to do with any offspring that may result from this
union."
The zoo administration quickly acceded to
these conditions, but what could be the third?
"Well," said Dave,
"You've gotta give me another week to come up with the five hundred
bucks."
