At medical school, a professor asked a student,
“How many kidneys do we have?”
The student answered, “Four!”
The professor, proud and wanting to show he was right, said, “Four? Bring some grass, because there’s a donkey in the room.” He told his assistant to get it.
The student then told the assistant, “And bring coffee for me!”
The professor got very angry and kicked the student out of the class.
But the student was Aparicio Torelly Aporelly (1895–1971), a funny man known as the ‘Baron of Itararé.’
As he left, he dared to say again to the angry professor: “You asked how many kidneys we have? We have four kidneys: two are mine, and two are yours. ‘We’ means more than one. Enjoy your meal, and you can have the grass.”
