Two guys are bungee-jumping one day. The first guy says to the second.
"You know, we could make a lot of money running our own bungee-jumping
service in Mexico." The second guy thinks this is a great idea,
so the two
pool their money and buy everything they'll need....A tower, an
elastic cord, insurance, etc.
They travel to Mexico and begin to set up on the square. As they
are constructing the tower, a crowd begins to assemble. Slowly, more
and more people gather to watch them at work.
The first guy jumps. He bounces at the end of the cord, but when he
comes back up, the second guy notices that he has a few cuts and
scratches.
Unfortunately, the second guy isn't able to catch him, and he falls
again, bounces and comes back up again. This time, he is bruised and
bleeding. Again, the second guy misses him. The first guy falls again and
bounces back up.
This time, he comes back pretty messed up--he's got a couple of broken
bones and is almost unconscious. Luckily, the second guy finally catches
him this time and says, "What happened? Was the cord too long?"
The first guy says, "No, the cord was fine, but what the heck is a pinata?
