A wag met Nasrudin. In his pocket he had an egg. ‘Tell me, Mulla; are you any good at guessing games?’ ‘Not bad,’ said Nasrudin. ‘Very well, then: tell me what I have in my pocket.’ ‘Give me a clue, then.’ ‘It is shaped like an egg, it is yellow and white inside, and it looks like an egg.’ ‘Some sort of cake,’ said Nasrudin.
