A Polack answered a nationwide quiz program that gave away money even to the dumbest people.

“Okay, Mr Kozakowsky, for one thousand dollars, tell us, which famous French general was defeated at the battle of Waterloo?”

The Polack looked puzzled.
”We’ll give you a clue,” smiled the questioner, and opened the door of a large refrigerator. Inside was a bottle of Napoleon brandy.

Kozakowsky still looked bewildered and scratched his head.

“Just read the name you see and you win one thousand dollars. Now, what was the name of the general?”

The Polack stared for a moment, then smiled.
”Of course,” he said, “it must have been General Electric!”
