Bhola and karate

Bhola as you know, is a not too smart kind of guy. Everyday when he
walked home from work, he would get stopped by three nasty men and
they would beat him up and steal his money.

Finally, Bhola decided that it would serve his best interest to walk a
different route and then take up some self-defense classes so this
wouldn't happen again.

He joined a karate class and soon was doing very well to defend
himself. So, one day, on the
way home from work Bhola took his old route home and sure enough
there they were. He
walked up to them and the battle ensued.

The next afternoon Bhola went to his karate class with a black eye, a
broken nose and a busted lip. His instructor, shocked, asked him what
happened.

"Well," explained Bhola, "I took my old way home last night so I could
beat these guys up who were stealing my money, but they beat me up
before I could get my shoes and socks off!"
