Once there were three men who were going to be executed with the guillotine during the French Revolution. The first man was a mathmatician, the second man was an artist, and the third man was a engineer.

The police led the mathmatician up and told him to say his last words. He said, I will always die for my country. The men led him to the guillotine. The blade stopped an inch from his neck. The police said that it must be the will of God that the mathmatician would not die.



The same thing happened to the artist. His last words were, I will always die for my country. He was led to the guillotine and the blade stopped an inch from his neck. The police said that it must be the will of God that the artist would not die.



When the police led the engineer up and told him to say his last words, he said, I think I know how to fix the guillotine.
