After a long day of meetings they were shocked to hear that the
elevators in their hotel were broken and they would have to climb

Bob said to Jake and
Scott, let's break the monotony of this unpleasant task by
concentrating on something interesting. I'll tell jokes for 25
flights, and Jake can sing songs for 25 flights, and Scott can
tell sad stories the rest of the way. At the 26th floor Bob
stopped telling jokes and Jake began to sing. At the 51st floor
Jake stopped singing and Scott began to tell sad stories. "I will
tell my saddest story first," he said. "I left the room key in
the car!"
