Three friends are sitting in a bar one night when they are joined by a
stranger. The stranger says, "I'll bet each of you $20 I can tell you which
college you graduated from." They all decide to indulge him since his
claim is very interesting and potentially lucrative.
The stranger says to the first one, "You went to Yale, no doubt." Amazed,
the Yalie asks, "How did you know that?" "Easy," replied the stranger,
"You are very precise in the way you talk and describe things."
The apparently lucky stranger then says to the second gentleman, "You must
have attended Dartmouth." Shocked, the former Hanover resident replies,
"Wow, please explain!" The twice lucky stranger states, "You are obviously
an alcoholic and you sound like you spent too much time studying."
The stranger then turns to the third man and says "You, I am absolutely
positive, went to Harvard." The astonished 'vard replies, "How could you
possibly have known that one? Was it my superior intellect or well balanced
manner?" "No," the stranger responded, "It was simple actually. I read it
off of your class ring while you were picking your nose."
