John's next door neighbour was undertaking an
oral examination for entry into the Munruben University.
The question: "Captain Cook made three trips to the
Pole and died during one of them. Which one was it?"
John's neighbour replied, "Could you give me another
question. I am not very good at History?"

thats a real trick question
he didn't die anywhere near a pole, it was near a cooking pot
Dying the first time would have saved a lot of trouble.
The cooking pot was hanging on a pole.
Don't keep us in suspense Allan. Which trip did he die on?
Do they really have a university at Munruben???
Is John the Dean?
Firstly Cook was only a Lieutenant he was made a Capt postumisouly
Munruban Uni is a great Uni vast open tracts to while away the study hours the only sound you'll hear is that of a new table saw getting its daily work out.
Thats John making up the presentation plaques for graduation day

I don't know if I should be pedantic about the correctness of the question. As historians you all make good woodworkers.
So it all sounds like sawdust to you then? :D
:doh: It was his last trip of course well at sea anyway he had one more to go
So was this polish person a man or a woman , did he die when his missus caught him or did the pole's boyfriend come home , :rolleyes:
I think it had something to do with a bunch of angry natives, and what he left behind the last time he visited. ( or rather, the time before the last time he visited.)
