Question

One day an old man is selling an elephant. A young man comes to the elephant and begins to look at it slowly. The old man goes up to him and says in his ear. “Don’t say anything about the elephant before I sell it, then I’ll give you some meat.”

“All right.” says the young man.

After the old man sells the elephant, he gives the young man some meat and says,”Now, can you tell me how you could see the bad ears of the elephant?”
