FAVORITE PASTIME
For his final project in a statistics
class, a student decided to conduct a survey. So it wouldn't be a boring project, he chose
to find out peoples' favorite pastimes.
The teacher required that he sample at
least 100 people,so he started out his project visiting a fairly large apartment building
near the university.
He knocked on the first door and a man
answered.
"Sir, what is your name?" asked
the student
"John."
"Sir, I'm doing a school study and
would like to know what your favorite pastime is?"
"Watching bubbles in the bath,"
came the reply.
He liked the esoterical answer and
continued down the hall, until he came to the next door, when he asked again.
"Sir,what is your name?"
"Jeff."
"Sir, would you please tell me your
favorite pastime?"
"Watching bubbles in the bath,"
was the answer.
Quite amused and confused, he went on to
ask a good number of people in the building and and all of them had the same pastime of
"watching bubbles in the bath."
He left the building and walked across the
street where there were several rows of sorority houses to continue the survey.
At the first house, he knocks and an
attractive sorority girl opens the door.
Our surveyor starts again, "What is
your name?"
"Bubbles!"
