Members ... Posted September 4, 2016 Members Share Posted September 4, 2016 When I was a boy, our family used to tell, what we called, "logic jokes" around the dinner table. Here's one that I remember from when I was about ten years old or so. A team of archaeologists were digging in northern Africa and discovered two bodies, one male and one female, perfectly preserved to where they looked as if they could have died a few days ago. They called in the team leader. He took one look at them and immediately knew that they were Adam and Eve. How did he know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two human bodies found are the Adam and Eve from the Book of Genesis. It's not a trick question. The team leader knew, by looking at their bodies (This is a clean joke, so not "those" places).

Members Alan Posted September 4, 2016 Members Share Posted September 4, 2016 Hmmm? You said ' bodies,' not 'bones.'
