Weird! Here it is again:
A fleeing Taliban, desperate for water, was plodding
through the Afghanistan desert when he saw something
far off in the distance. Hoping to find water, he
walked towards the image, only to find a little old
Jewish man sitting at a card table with a bunch of
neckties laid out on it.
The Arab asked, "I'm dying of thirst, can I have some
water?" The Jew replied, "I don't have any water, but
why don't you buy a tie? They are only $150. Here's
one that goes very nicely with your robes." The Arab
shouted, "I don't want an overpriced tie, you idiot,
I need water!"
The Jew replied, "OK then, don't buy my ties. But to
show you what a nice guy I am, I'll tell you that over
that hill there, about four miles, is a nice restaurant.
Walk that way; they have all the water you need." The
Arab begrudgingly thanked him, then staggered away
towards the hill and eventually disappeared.
Four hours later the Arab came crawling back to where
the Jewish man was sitting behind his card table. The
Jew said, "I told you, about four miles over that hill.
Couldn't you find it?"
The Arab rasped, "I found it all right. Your brother
wouldn't let me in without a tie."
