| A rich man’s son was kidnapped. The ransom note told him to bring a valuable diamond to a phone booth in the middle of a public park. Plainclothes police officers surrounded the park, intending to follow the criminal or his messenger. The rich man arrived at the phone booth and followed instructions, but the police were powerless to prevent the diamond from leaving the park and reaching the crafty villain.

A man walks into a bar and sets a lizard-looking animal down on the bar in front of him. The bartender looks at the reptile, and says, “What is that?”
The patron replies, “Oh, he’s my new pet.” “What’s his name?” asks the bartender. “Tiny,” replies the man. “Well, that’s an odd name for a lizard! Why did you name him Tiny?” the confused bartender asks. “Well,” the man says, “because he’s my newt.”

What am I? |
