Ears...

    Merv was in a terrible accident at work. He fell through a floor
    tile and ripped off both of his ears. Since he was permanently
    disfigured, he settled with the company for a rather large sum
    of money and went on his way.

    One day, Merv decided to invest his money in a small, but
    growing telecom business called Plexus Communications. After
    weeks of negotiations, he bought the company outright. But,
    after signing on the dotted line, he realized that he knew
    nothing about running such a business and quickly set out to
    hire someone who could do that for him.

    The next day he had set up three interviews. The first guy was
    great. He knew everything he needed to and was very interesting.
    At the end of the interview, Merv asked him, "Do you notice
    anything different about me?" And the gentleman answered, "Why
    yes, I couldn't help but notice you have no ears." Merv got very
    angry and threw him out.

    The second interview was with a woman, and she was even better
    than the first guy. He asked her the same question, "Do you
    notice anything different about me?" and she replied: "Well, you
    have no ears." Merv again was upset and tossed her out.

    The third and last interview was the best of all three. It was
    with a very young man who was fresh out of college. He was
    smart. He was handsome. And he seemed to be a better businessman
    than the first two put together. Merv was anxious, but went
    ahead and asked the young man the same question: "Do you notice
    anything different about me?" And to his surprise, the young man
    answered: "Yes. You wear contact lenses."

    Merv was shocked, and said, "What an incredibly observant young
    man. How in the world did you know that?"

    The young man fell off his chair laughing hysterically and
    replied, "Well, it's pretty hard to wear glasses with no fcuking
    ears!"
