A guy walks into a bar with an octopus.
He sits the octopus down on a stool and tells everyone in the bar
that this is a very talented octopus. He can play any musical
instrument in the world." Everyone in the bar laughs at the man,
calling him an idiot. So he says that he will wager £50 to anyone
who has an instrument that the octopus can't play.


A customer walks up with a guitar and sets it beside the octopus.
Immediately the octopus picks up the guitar and starts playing
better than Jimmy Hendrix.The guitar owner pays up the £50.
Another customer walks up with a trumpet.
This time the octopus plays the trumpet better than Miles Davis. The
trumpet-owner coughs up the £50. Then Jim, a Scotsman plonks some
bagpipes on the table.


The octopus fumbles with the bagpipes for a minute and then backs
Off with a confused loo k.
Ha!" the Scot says. "Can ye nae plae it?"
The octopus looks up at him and says, "Play it? I'm going to shag it
as soon as I figure out how to get its pyjamas off."
