A man was driving by an insane asylum when he got a flat tire. He pulled over to change the tire, when he noticed one of the inmates watching him from behind the iron gate. The man nervously jacks up the car and removes the hubcap of the flattened tire. He then carefully removes each of the lug nuts and places them in the upturned hubcap so they will not get lost. All the while, the inmate silently watches him.
He removes the damaged tire and replaces it with his spare tire. As he reaches to retrieve a lug nut, he accidentally tips over the hubcap, and all 4 of the lug nuts fly out and fall down the storm drain. Now the driver is in a real panic, he cannot replace the tire, and he dare not ask for help… when suddenly the inmate speaks. “Why don’t you just remove one lug nut from each of the other tires, install them on the replacement tire? Then drive down the street to the auto garage and buy four more lug nuts?” The driver looks up in astonishment at the inmate and says… “That’s brilliant! But if you’re so smart, what are you doing in there?” To which the inmate responds… “I may be crazy… but I’m not stupid”
