Continuing Marval's joke on hair loss
Bald Bill is invited to a costume party. He rushes to the costume shop. He tells the shop owner that he wants a costume that will hide both his bald head and his wooden leg.
The store owner goes to the back of the store, and returns with a pirate costume. “This will cover your head with a bandanna, and your wooden leg will look just like part of your costume.”
“That’s not going to work,”said Bald Bill. “I asked for a costume that covers both my baldness and my wooden leg.”
The store owner apologises, and returns to the back of the store. He returns a few minutes later, carrying a monk’s habit. “This long robe will cover your wooden leg, and your bald head will seem to be just part of the costume.”
Bald Bill is irate. “I said I wanted a costume that would cover both my baldness, and my wooden leg!”
The store owner apologises again to Bald Bill, and returns to the back of the store. He returns with a jar of molasses, which he hands to Bald Bill.
“What am I supposed to do with this?” Bald Bill asks.
The store owner replies,”Pour this molasses on your head, and stick your wooden leg up your butt. Then you’ll look like a caramel apple.
