He is wearing a rucksack on his back.
Describe the rucksack giving as much detail as possible.
The customs officer at the border crossing stops him and asks:

‘What’s in your rucksack?’

Tell me, what’s in??
‘Sand’, answers the man.The customs officer …
Describe him!
The customs officer is suspiciousand tells the man to get off the bike.
He opens the rucksack and find nothing but sand, so he lets the man go.
A week later the man arrives at the border again. Once more he’s carrying the rucksack and the sand again.
This time the customs officer detains the man overnight and has the sand analysed,but it’s really just sand.
How does the officer feel?
So once again the customs officer lets the man go.This happens everyday for three years and always the same story.
One day the customs officer is in a bar having a drink ...

The officer recognizes the man and says:‘I know you’re smuggling something and it’s driving me crazy! I haven’t slept for months.Now that I’m retired, could you pleasetell me what it is?!’
