Tourist at a desert oasis... sees a local with a camel and a sign that reads, "Photos of you on camel back... $1.00".

Tourist goes to the local and asks, "Only a dollar? Are you able to make a living from this?"

"Yes sir, I am able to manage. I have a sound business. Would you like a picture of you on the camel back?"

The tourist agrees, pays the man his dollar, and with some effort is able to get on the camel. Pictures taken, the tourist then says, "OK, can you help me get down?"

The local flips over his sign... "Assistance dismounting camels... $50.00".



^ Also, respect to Burt Reynolds in the GIF, who passed away yesterday, age 82.

This has to be based off of a real experience

When I was in the Army we were sent to Egypt for some training.  When the training was done we got to go see the pyramids in Cairo.  At the pyramids there were some camel jockeys who were  giving free camel rides.  The only catch was you had to pay to be let off the camel.  One guy was with us and he decided to have fun with what they were doing.  He hopped up on one of the camels and rode it around for a few minutes.  The camel jockey then said "ok, you give us something and we let you off."  He flipped it on them and was like "you give me something and then I will get off."  You could tell they were surprised by his response and they went back and forth for a few minutes.  The camel jockey finally gave in and let him off the camel for free.

OK, so a guy living in the Soviet Union gets a knock on his door at 2am.

He asks who it is, the guy at the door says, "Mailman!"

He opens the door, and it's a pair of KGB agents. They ask him, "Did you apply to emigrate to the USA?"

"Yes."

"Don't your kids get a good education here?"

"Yes."

"Don't you have enough to eat here?"

"Yes."

"Then why emigrate?"

"I want to live in a place where the mailmen don't pound on the door at 2am!"
