The Indian thought for just a moment, and then answered, "SCRAMBLED!" Wanting to show that his memory for faces was pretty good, he raised his hands in the traditional Indian greeting, and said, "How." One afternoon he happened to come upon the same Indian he had met here years ago. When he arrived home, he told all his friends about it, only to have them scoff and say that eggs were usually eaten at breakfast, and that anyone could have answered that.Īs the years passed, the man began to believe this, until one day he found himself back in the mid-west on a sales trip. The business man took his leave, completely stunned by this prodigious memory. The Indian didn't hesitate for even a second, as he answered, "eggs!" "What did you have for breakfast on the morning of April 5th, 1931?" Finally, he decided to try one last question.

He introduced himself to the Indian and proceeded to test him.
