Bet

A blonde and a redhead are watching the 6 o'clock news one evening. The redhead bets the blonde $50.00 that the man in the lead story, who is threatening to jump from a 40 story building, will jump.

"I'll take that bet," the blonde replied.

A few minutes later, the newscaster breaks in to report that the man had, indeed, jumped from the building. The redhead, feeling sudden guilt for having bet on such an incident, turns to the blonde and tells her that she does not need to pay the $50.

"No, a bet's a bet," the blonde replies, "I owe you $50 dollars. The redhead, feeling even more guilty, replies, "No, you don't understand. I saw the 5:30 edition, so I knew how it was going to turn out."

"That's okay," the blonde replied, "I saw it earlier too, but I didn't think he'd do it again."
