According to old lore, the king was looking for the best swordsmen in the land to be the first knight ever dubbed. He decided to hold a contest, and only three men entered.
"All right," began the king, "the contest goes like this: I will lift the lid from this container, and under it will be a fly. Each contestant must slice the fly into pieces with his sword as quickly as possible."
The first swordsmen stepped up to the container. As the king lifted the lid, the only sound heard was whoosh, and the fly fell to the ground in 2 pieces. The second swordsman had to top the first, and thats what he did. When the lid was lifted, the sounds whoosh, whoosh could be heard and the fly fell to the ground in four pieces. Everyone was wondering what the third swordsman would do to top the others. He stepped up to the container and the lid was lifted, the only sound heard was shhh, as the swordsman waved his sword gracefully. The fly, however,flew away. The king bellowed, "How did you think you could compete with these two fine swordsmen? That fly just flew away!"
"Yes, sire, he flew away," replied the third swordsman, "but he will never have sex again."
