Who’s on Vacation?

(originally in English)

There was a man who was walking to a train station

with two friends at his sides. Because the train was

delayed, the three of them sat down for a cup of

coffee. And then they also drank some alcohol.

After a while they forgot all about the train. So they

drank and talked, and talked and drank. But then

they heard the final announcement that the train

was leaving so the three got up and ran. And the

man who was walking between his two friends had

drunk too much and fell a little behind and couldn’t

catch up. The other two caught the caboose and

went away with the train. Then the man, the one

who had been between his two friends, stopped

there and laughed and laughed again. Everyone

around the man began to look at him and said,

"What are you laughing at? You missed the train,

you know?" And the man said, "Yeah, Yeah, I

know I missed the train, but I’m laughing at my

two friends because they had supposedly just

come to see me off!"
