toast9897 Mar 26, 2004	i figured something along those lines, but didnt get to the final conclusion. i figured how could a blind man to be able to drive... and if he was blind (which he obvbiously wasnt) how could know how much the check was worth... excellent teaser

crazygrace Mar 27, 2004	It was excellent! It makes me laugh.
fishmed Apr 11, 2004	I heard a similar one about two ladies in the army who had to paint a room, but were not allowed to get their uniforms dirty. They undressed and locked the door. There was a knock and when they asked who was there, "Blind man." was the answer. They figured he was blind and let him in. He commented on their state of undress and asked where he should put the blinds he was delivering. Same concept.

username Aug 14, 2004	what do you mean give him a check? what is he checking? does he check the blinds? what does that mean?
rashad Aug 17, 2004	Rachael : Blinds doesn't mean here "blind" ( not to see ) it means something, such as a window shade or a Venetian blind, that hinders vision or shuts out light. I hope u get it ... Anyway Excellent teaser
FreakEme09 Oct 14, 2004	username, a check like a money check
iLuVcOwS_00 Jun 14, 2005	i think this would have gone better in the trick category!!!
sweetime Jul 05, 2005	username (and anyone else who doesn't use the american way of spelling check) a check refers to a cheque...
sweetime Jul 05, 2005	oh and after what fishmed said - i heard the same one, but it was with nuns who couldn't get their habits dirty
