I think this is most suited here of all the forums on the site...here we go.

A Norwegian man wants a job, but the foreman won't hire him until he
passes a little math test.

"Here's your first question, the foreman said. "Without using numbers,
represent the number 9."
Without numbers?" the Norwegian says, "Dat is easy." And he proceeds
to draw three trees.
"What's this?" the boss asks.


"Ave you got no brain? Tree and tree and tree make nine," says the
Norwegian. "Fair enough," says the boss. "Here's your second
question. Use the same rules, but this time the number is 99."


The Norwegian stares into space for a while, then picks up the picture
that he has just drawn and makes a smudge on each tree. "Ere you go."
The boss scratches his head and says, "How on earth do you get that to
represent 99?" "Each of da trees is dirty now. So, it's dirty tree,
and dirty tree, and dirty tree. Dat is 99."


The boss is getting worried that he's going to actually have to hire
this Norwegian, so he says, "all right, last question. Same rules
again, but represent the number 100."


The Norwegian stares into space some more, then he picks up the picture
again and makes a little mark at the base of each tree and says, "Ere
you go. One hundred."

The boss looks at the attempt. "You must be nuts if you think that
represents a hundred!" (Thought you'd like this one.)

The Norwegian leans forward and points to the marks at the base of each
tree and says, "A little dog came along and crap by each tree. So now
you got dirty tree and a turd, dirty tree and a turd, and dirty tree
and a turd, dat make one hundred. So, when I start?
