Bhola wanted to join an amateur football team. The coach looked him over and decided to give him a chance.

Bhola says, "Two!"
"Very good!" said the coach. And what are they?"
"Today and Tomorrow!"
"Hmm... OK," said the coach. "How many seconds are there in a year?"
"Twelve!"
"Twelve? How did you come up with twelve?" The coach was perplexed.
"Well," said Bhola, "there's the second of January, the second of February, the second of..."

"How many d's in 'Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer?'"
"Oh, that is easy!" laughed Bhola. "Three hundred and sixty-five!"
"WHAT?" cried the coach. "How did you get that figure?"
To which Bhola sang, "dee dee dee-dee-dee dee-dee...."
