The Case of the Missing Wife
Moishe goes into a police station to report that his wife Rebecca is missing.
Moishe: “I’ve lost my wife. She went shopping yesterday and has still not come home.”
Sergeant: “How tall is she, sir?”
Moishe: “I think she’s 5 foot something.”
Sergeant: “And what about her build?”
Moishe: She’s not slim, but she’s not fat either.”
Sergeant: “What color are her eyes sir?”
Moishe: “Um… I can’t remember.”
Sergeant: “And what about the color of her hair?”
Moishe: “It changes all the time depending on what hairdresser she goes to.”
Sergeant: “What clothes was she wearing when you last saw her?”
Moishe: “I don’t know. It could have been a blue dress. Or maybe a black one. I don’t remember exactly.”
Sergeant: “When she left to go shopping did she go by car?”
Moishe: “Yes she did.”
Sergeant: “And what is the make of the car?”
Moishe: “It’s a high performance 560 HP Audi in a very special silver grey metallic paint. It has 8-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission and a 6.35 litre V12 engine generating at least 460 HP. It has the Z51 Super Performance Package; larger than normal alloy wheels; GT bucket seats; Satellite Navigation with world-wide coverage, and Direct Injection. It also unfortunately has a very thin scratch on the front left door. And… ”
At this point, Moishe starts to cry.
Sergeant: “Don’t worry sir. We’ll find your car.”
