A policeman was testing 3 Singh brothers who were training to become detectives. To test their skills in recognizing a suspect, he shows the first Singh a picture for 5 seconds and then hides it. "This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?"
The first Singh answers, "That`s easy, we`ll catch him fast because he only has one eye!" The policeman says, "Well...uh.. .that`s because the picture I showed is his side profile." Slightly flustered by this ridiculous response, he flashes the picture for 5 seconds at the second Singh and asks him, "This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?"
The second Singh smiles and says, "Ha! He`d be too easy to catch because he only has one ear!" The policeman angrily responds, "What`s the matter with you two? Of course only one eye and one ear are showing because it`s a picture of his side profile! Is that the best answer you can come up with?"
Extremely frustrated at this point, he shows the picture to the third Singh and in a very testy voice asks, "This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?
He quickly adds, "Think hard before giving me a stupid answer." The Singh looks at the picture intently for a moment and says, "The suspect wears contact lenses." The policeman is surprised and speechless because he really doesn`t know himself if the suspect wears contacts or not. "Well, that`s aninteresting answer. Wait here for a few minutes while I check his file and I`ll get back to you on that." He leaves the room and goes to his office,checks the suspect`s file in his computer, and comes back with a beaming smile on his face.
"Wow! I can`t believe it. It`s TRUE! The suspect does in fact wear contact lenses. Good work! How were you able to make such an astute observation? " "That`s easy," the Singh replied. "He can`t wear regular glasses because he only has one eye and one ear."
