It happened in Newark, Ohio

A policeman was interrogating 3 blonde's who were training to become detectives.

To test their skills in recognizing a suspect, he shows the first blond a picture for 5 seconds and then hides it. "This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?

The first blond answers, "That's easy, we'll catch him fast because he only has one eye!"

The policeman says, "Well...uh...that's because the picture shows his side profile." Slightly flustered by this ridiculous response, he flashes the picture for 5 seconds at the second blond and asks her, "This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?"

The second blond giggles, flips her hair and says, "Ha! He'd be too easy to catch because he only has one ear!"

The policeman angrily responds, "What's the matter with you two?!? Of course only one eye and one ear are SHOWING because it's a picture of his side profile!! Is that the best answer you can come up with?

Extremely frustrated at this point, he shows the picture to the third blond and in a very testy voice asks, "This is your suspect, how would you recognize him?" He quickly adds"... think hard before giving me a stupid answer."

The blond looks at the picture intently for a moment and says, "Hmmmm...the suspect wears contact lenses."

The policeman is surprised and speechless because he really doesn't know himself if the suspect wears contacts or not. "Well, that's an interesting answer...wait here for a few minutes while I check his file and I'll get back to you on that."

He leaves the room and goes to his office, checks the suspects file in his computer, and comes back with a beaming smile on his face. "Wow! I can't believe it...it's TRUE! The suspect does in fact wear contact lenses. Good work! How were you able to make such an astute observation?

"That's easy," the blond replied. "He can't wear regular glasses because he only has one eye and one ear."
