A Polak went to a carpenter and said, “Can you build me a box that
is two inches high, two inches wide, and fifty feet long?”
“Hmm…” mused the carpenter. “It could be done, I suppose, but what
would you want a box like that for?”
“Well, you see,” said the Polak, “my neighbor moved away and forgot
some things, so he asked me to send him his garden hose.”
