A woman from Chelm, Poland went to the market one day to buy herring and a loaf of bread. "How much is it?"
she asked the storekeeper.
"14 cents," answered the storekeeper to the lady.
"14 cents! For what?" asked the lady.
The storekeeper explained: The herring costs 7 cents, and the loaf of bread costs 7 cents also. So together it comes to 14 cents."
"I know different. To the best of my recollection, 7 and 7 is 11."
"What are your saying?"
"As far as I know, 7 and 7 is 11...I had already had 4 children when my first husband died. When I married a second time, my second husband also had 4 children from his first wife. After getting married, we had 3 children together. So each of us had 7 children, and together we had 11!
"Obviously, 7 and 7 is 11."
