Pretty Good Jokes
Two happy Swedes, Sven and Ole, walk into a Norwegian bar and order a round for the bar. They give each other a high 5, and dance around, chanting "32 weeks, 32 weeks". Since alcohol is pretty pricey in Norway, the patrons smile, offer thanks and continue their conversations. But the two can't hold it in, so they do it all again, round for the bar, high 5 and the "32 weeks" chant.
So finally one Norwegian asks the boys what they are celebrating.
And Ole proudly responds - "We got this puzzle, and it says 3 to 5 years, but it only took us 32 weeks!"
