These two Poles are building a house. One of them
is putting on the siding. He picks up a nail, hammers it in. Picks up
another nail, throws it away. Picks up a nail, hammers it in. Picks up
another, throws it away.
This goes on for a while, and finally his friend
comes over and asks him why he is throwing half of the nails away. He
replies, "Those ones were pointed on the wrong end." The buddy gets
exasperated and says "You idiot, those are for the other side of the
house!"
