Awright this one is for BARDIVHEV
The only reason I can say it in Bais medrash is because I read that the great tzadik Reb Shlomo Freifeld z"l liked this joke!!
Three tired and hungry hobos knocked on the farmers door and begged for a place to rest their weary bones. Feeling bad for them, the farmer agreed that they could stay in the barn for the nigh as they long as they dare not come into the farmhouse.
Being that they hadn't eaten maybe for days, in middle of the night one of the hobos decided that he would brave it and sneak into the farmhouse and forage for some food. Sure enough a little while later he comes back with some food and tell the others that while he was in the house the farmer gave a shout "who's there?" And the hobo responded "meow".
So hobo # 2 decideds that he too will brave it and crawls towards the farmhouse. A few minutes later he's back with same story, the farmer shouted "who's there?" and the hobo answers "Meowwww meowww".
The third hobo hears all this and says now its my turn, and sets off crawling to the farmhouse. All of a sudden BOOOOM there erupts a LOUD GUNSHOT BlAST and like an arrow breathlessly hobo # 3 comes panting bach to the barn. "What happened they asked him?" He replied "I don't know when the farmer shouted who's there I answered "its the darn cat again""
Lol lolI read it in the book" Reb Shlomo", a great book that I enjoyed immensely and its very well written!
