There were three Eskimos in Alaska, and one time while they were at
their local bar, they
got to talking about how cold it was outside, and how cold their
igloos were. They could
agree on everything but whose igloo was the coldest, so they decided
to determine who,
indeed, had the coldest igloo.
They went to the first Eskimo's igloo, where he said "Watch this!" and
poured a cup of
water into the air. Well, the water froze in mid-air and fell onto the
floor solid. "Not bad"
said the other Eskimos, but each maintained their igloo was colder
still.
So they went to the second Eskimo's igloo, and he said "Watch this!"
and took a big breath
and exhaled, whereupon his breath froze into a big lump and fell to
the floor. "Wow,
that's colder than mine!"said the first Eskimo. But the third Eskimo
exclaimed his was
colder still.
So they ended up at the third Eskimo's igloo. He said "Watch this!"
and went into the
bedroom, looked under three huge thick furs, and retrieved one of
several small balls
of ice there. He took one of the small balls of ice and put it in a
spoon, and held a match
under it. When it heated up enough, it went "FFFAAAARRRRTTT".
