Brain Teaser
Buford was being audited by the IRS.
He figured that even if his son, brother in-law
and his half-uncle were the same person, he
should still be able to claim three

The poor IRS auditor was so flustered that he gave
Buford the opportunity to plead his case with a
single
statement.
If the statement was true, Buford would be fined
$10,000. If the statement was false, 'ol
Buford would
rot in prison for 10 years.
What did Buford say that got the auditor to
dismiss the
charges altogether?
Give up? . . . check the answer.
