(This joke is going off memory from a long time ago)

A man who had only one great skill in life was looking for work.  He went to the job office and was asked, "What can you do?"  "I can build a bloop machine", he declared.  "A bloop machine?"  Believing this to be a highly advanced machine of importance, the job office clerk said "You'll need to go to the government; Department of Energy".

The man went to the Department of Energy and met a clerk there.  "What can you do?"  "I can build a bloop machine", he replied.  Believing this to be a highly advanced weapon, the clerk said "You'll need to to the military".

And so the man went to military recruitment where he met an officer.  "What can you do?" asked the officer.  "I can build a bloop machine".  Believing this to be a weapon for ships, the officer told him to go to the Navy.

He went to the navy where he met another officer.  Again he was asked what he can do.  Again he replied that he can build a bloop machine.

The officer was about to send him off, when a Captain had passed, over-hearing.  Believing that the bloop machine could put them ahead of all of their enemies, the Captain put the man to work.  "You'll work on my battle ship!  We'll give you all the resources and all the time you need!"  The man agreed, beginning his work immediately.

The man worked alone, hidden in a room behind an iron door, and when people passed they heard ceaseless clanging and banging.  Days passed and he was tireless, his meals were brought to him, endless materials were brought to him.  Weeks passed, and there was not a peep from the man, never leaving his room.  Months passed.  And still the man worked without pause, only the sounds of clanging and banging, banging and clanging, all day everyday.  Years passed.  The crew grew more and more curious.  "What is it?!  What's he building in there?"  But the captain insisted the man was not to be disturbed.  Larger and larger portions of the navy budget were placed on the project as the man needed more and more materials.  A decade passed.  Finally, the man alerted a guard outside that he was ready.

The Captain alerted everyone; everyone stood on deck, as the man came from out of his room.  His beard reached his toes, his face covered by his hair.  He pushed with all his strength rolling a large, metal pig, covered here and there with holes, rolling it onto the deck.  People stood back and gasped at the immensity of the object.  The Captain was astonished; it must be a new type of bomb, the size of it would blow a hole through the Earth.  The man rolled it onto the edge and to everyone's surprise he pushed it off the ship.

As it sank into the water, it went bloop bloop bloop
