Interviewer says “Whats that?”
French guy says “ Tree plus tree plus tree is 9”
Interviewer says “Ok now represent 99 with no numbers”
French guy takes the piece of paper and smudges the middle of each tree.
Interviewer says” What the hell is that?”
French guy says “ Dirty tree plus dirty tree plus dirty tree is 99
Interviewer says “Ok smart guy try 100”
French guy takes the paper and draws a little blob at the bottom of each tree
Interviewer says “ What’s that got to do with 100?”
French guy says “ Dog comes along and craps at the bottom of each tree. Now you have dirty tree and a turd plus dirty tree and a turd plus dirty tree and a turd- that’s 100!”
