Re: Groaner Jokes
A medieval king learned from his spies that one of his counts was plotting against him. He gathered them all together and threatened them with all with death if the culprit didn't come forward. "I will hang you one by one until I have a confession!" he cried. There was silence. So he began hanging each one in turn while the others stood in silence. He got to the last one and gave him the chance of either confessing or telling him who it was. Silence. So he hanged the last count without uncovering the plot. He then found out that there was still a plot to overthrow him and realised that he had been too hasty to execute his counts as they did know about it.
