VIKRAM KARVE
Here is a Mulla Nasrudin story to cheer you up on Wednesday Morning
Once, Mulla Nasrudin bought a new knife.
He was walking home admiring the brand new knife and its glistening blade.
A policeman standing nearby saw him and the policeman promptly arrested Mulla Nasrudin.
“What for are you arresting me?” a bewildered Nasrudin asked the policeman.
“Intent to commit murder,” said the policeman “You are carrying a tool of murder on your person”.
Mulla Nasrudin looked around and saw a distinguished looking old man walking on the street.
Nasrudin pointed towards the distinguished looking old man and shouted to the policeman, “Arrest that man immediately!”
“What for?” asked the surprised policeman.
“Intent to commit rape,” said Nasrudin, “He is carrying the tool of …”
“Enough …” interrupted the cop.
He set Nasrudin free and both of them departed laughing.
Keep laughing and have a happy day ahead ...
