Polak: Build Me A Box

A Polak went to a carpenter and said, Can you build me a box that

is two inches high, two inches wide, and fifty feet long?

Hmm… mused the carpenter. It could be done, I suppose, but what

would you want a box like that for?

Well, you see, said the Polak, my neighbor moved away and forgot

some things, so he asked me to send him his garden hose.
