The Prison Joke Book

At a Prison in the South, there is only one Joke Book, and as you might well imagine, its very popular... in fact it is the most popular book at the Prision's Library. It is so popular in fact that many of the Inmates have memorized the Jokes by number.

So just before 'lights out' people start telling jokes, so you'll hear one inmate call out #5 at the top of his lungs, a few seconds later the whole range is howling in laughter ...

This is followed by another yelling, #11, e-l-e-v-e-n, again the place erupts in to a sea of laughter. This goes on a while longer and a guy yells out #5 at the top of his lungs, once again the explodes in to fits of laughter.

17, 10, 6, all get shouted out, just as before the place explodes in fits of laughter.

One of the newer guys, facinated by this whole thing, yells out #5 at the top of his lungs ... dead silence.

Puzzled, he asks his cell mate, why didn't anyone laugh when I yelled out #5 at the top of my lungs ...?

The cellmate replies, boy, you just dont know how to tell a good joke.
