English Original
One day, a father and his young son were walking home. The boy, at an age of endless curiosity, was always asking questions.
He asked, "Dad, what does the word 'drunk' mean?"
"Well, son," his father replied, "look over there. There are two policemen standing. If I see them as four, then I am drunk."
"But, Dad," the boy said, "there's only ONE policeman!"
