Moshe the Carpenter, returning home with his week';s wages, was accosted by an armed robber on a deserted street.
"Take my money," said Moshe, "but do me a favour: Shoot a bullet through my hat otherwise my wife won't believe I was robbed."
The robber obliged. He threw Moshes' hat into the air and put a bullet through it.
"Let's make it look as if I ran into a gang of robbers," said Moshe" otherwise my wife will call me a coward!
Please shoot a number of holes through my coat."
So the robber shot a number of holes through the carpenter's coat.
"And now…"
"Sorry," interrupted the robber. "No more holes. I'm out of bullets."
"That's all I wanted to know!" said Moshe - "Now hand me back my money and some more for the hat and coat that you've ruined or I'll beat you black and blue!"
