The Slow Camel
A tourist rents a camel for a desert trek. The camel guide gives him instructions:
“Say ‘Whoa!’ to stop, ‘Walk!’ to go, and ‘Hallelujah!’ to run.”
The tourist sets off, shouting “Hallelujah!” The camel takes off at a breakneck speed.
Suddenly, the tourist sees a cliff ahead.
Panicking, he forgets the stop command and starts shouting random words: “Amen! Stop! Please!”
At the last second, he remembers and yells, “Whoa!” The camel screeches to a halt, inches from the edge.
Relieved, the man wipes his brow and says, “Hallelujah!”
