Just for Laughs – A tourist in South America was visiting a tribe deep in the jungle. He noticed that most of the tribe wore necklaces made of alligator teeth and seemed very proud of them.

“I suppose those alligator teeth are as valuable to you as pearls are to us,” he commented.

“Much more,” said the tribe’s elder.

“Oh really? How is that?”

“Anybody can open an oyster.”
