I love reading this encyclopedia of Howard Hughes Jokes.I got this book off from ebay for one hundred tweenty five dollars back in 1966.Somebody bought same book i have at ebay for more than two thousand dollars, lucky me i got this for only $125.00.
One of the jokes i like and made me laugh is this,
Because there was too much grumbling at the RKO studio about Howard Hughes always giving starring roles to his current girl friends,Hughes announced that he was going to give all the girls an equal chance to star in one of his cowboy movies."we'll let the brains be a test as well as beauty",he said.
He and the producers called in all the RKO hopefuls,as well as his own girl friend,and asked one question,"How many legs does a horse have?"
His girl friend,who gave the answer "three legs",still won the part.After the girls left the room,his colleagues took him to ask for not keeping his word.Some could hardly contain their annoyance.Hughes said nothing--just looked straight ahead.
Later,the director took Hughes aside and asked how he could give the part to a girl who was so dumb she thought a horse had only three legs.
Said Hughes,sheepishly,"It was a crippled horse."
