A man returns from the Vietnam War with a particularly strange injury. A grenade blast had burnt his ears so severely that both had to be amputated. Because of this injury, he was easily infuriated by anyone mentioning it to him.
After a few years home, he decided to go into business. He looked around, produced some tests, and found three good candidates to go into business with. He just needed to test their observational skills.
The first man came in. The man asked the candidate, "Do you notice anything strange about me?" The immediate response was laughter, "You don't have any ears!" The man beat the candidate up and threw him out.
The second candidate entered and received the same question. "Do you notice anything strange about me?" Again, the answer was immediate. "You don't have any ears!" So he, too, was beaten up and thrown out.
The third candidate entered and received the same question. "Do you notice anything strange about me?" The third candidate thought for a moment, then concluded, "You're wearing contact lenses."
"Very good. How'd you know that?"
"Because you don't have any ears for glasses!"
