Two builders (Dave and Stuart) are seated either side of a table in a

>
> The two builders start to speculate about the occupation of the suit
>
> Dave: - I reckon he's an accountant.
>
> Stuart: - No way - he's a stockbroker.
>
> Dave: - he ain't a stockbroker! A stockbroker wouldn't come in here!
>
> The argument repeats itself for some time until the volume of beer
> gets the better of Dave and he makes for the toilet.
>
> On entering the toilet he sees that the suit is standing at a urinal.

> Curiosity and the several beers get the better of the builder...

> Dave: - 'Scuse me.... no offence meant, but me and me mate were

>
> Suit: - No offence taken! I'm a Logical Scientist by profession
>
> Dave: - Oh! What's that then?
>
> Suit: - I'll try to explain by example .. Do you have a goldfish at
home?
>
> Dave: - Er... mmm... well yeah, I do as it happens!
>
> Suit: - Well, it's logical to follow that you keep it in a bowl or in
a

>
> Dave: - It's in a pond!
>
> Suit: - Well it's reasonable to suppose that you have a large garden
then?
>
> Dave: - As it happens, yes I have got a big garden.
>
> Suit: - Well then it's logical to assume that in this town if you have
> a large garden then you have a large house?
>
> Dave: - As it happens I've got a five bedroom house ... built it
myself!
>
> Suit: - Well given that you've built a five-bedroom house it is

>
> Dave: - Yes I am married, I live with my wife and four children.
>
> Suit: - Well then it is logical to assume that you are sexually active
> with your wife on a regular basis?
>
> Dave: - Yep! Five times a week!
>
> Suit: - Well then it is logical to suggest that you do not masturbate
> very often?
>
> Dave: - Do what? Not me mate!
>
> Suit: - Well there you are! That's logical science at work!
>
> Dave: - How's that then?
>
> Suit: - Well from finding out that you had a goldfish, I've told you
> about your sex life!
>
> Dave: - I see! That's pretty impressive .. thanks mate!
>
> Both leave the toilet and Dave returns to his mate.
>
> Stuart: - I see the suit was in there. Did you ask him what he does?
>
> Dave: - Yep! He's a logical scientist!
>
> Stuart: - What's that then?
>
> Dave: - I'll try and explain. Do you have a goldfish?
>
> Stuart: - Nope
>
> Dave: - Well then, you're a wanker.
