The Three Convicts

Three convicts, one brown haired, one bald, and one blond were on their way for a stay in the big house. They were each allowed to take one item with them to help them occupy their time while incarcerated.

On the bus, the bald man turned to another and said, "So, what did you bring?"

The second convict, with the one with brown hair, pulled out a box of paints and stated that he intended to paint anything he could and imagine life outside of prison. Then he asked the first, "What did you bring?"

The bald convict pulled out a deck of cards and, grinning, said, "I brought cards. I can play poker, solitaire, gin, and any number of games."

The third convict was sitting quietly aside, a huge smile under his blond mop of hair.

The other two took notice and asked, "Why are you so smug? What did you bring?"

The guy pulled out a box of tampons and smiled, saying, "I brought these."

The other two were seriously puzzled and asked, "What on earth can you do with those?"

He laughed and pointed to the box and said, "Well according to the box, I can go horseback riding, swimming, roller-skating. Not bad, eh?"
