Guillotine


One day, they're leading a priest, a drunkard , and an engineer to the guillotine. They ask the priest if he wants to face up or down when he meets his fate.


The priest says that he would like to face up, so he will
be looking at heaven when he dies.
They raise the blade of the guillotine and release it. It comes speeding down and suddenly stops just inches from his neck.
The authorities take this as divine intervention and release the priest.


The drunkard comes up to the guillotine next. He also decides to die face up, hoping that he will be as fortunate as the priest.
They raise the blade of the guillotine and release it. It comes speeding down, but suddenly stops just inches from his neck.
Again the authorities take this as a sign of divine intervention and they release the drunkard as well.


Next is the engineer. He too decides to die facing up. As they slowly raise the blade of the guillotine the engineer suddenly says, "Hey...I see what your problem is...."
