Three convicts are on their way to prison.
They were each allowed to take one item with them to help occupy their time while incarcerated.

On the bus, one turns to another and asks, "So, what did you bring?"

The second convict pulls out a box of paints and states that he intends to paint anything he can get his hands on.

"I'll be the Grandma Moses of jail," he says, before asking the first, "So, what did you bring?"

The first convict pulls out a deck of cards, grins, and says, "I brought cards. I can play poker, solitaire, gin, and any number of games."

The third convict, seeing what was going on, began to smile to himself.

The others, taking notice, ask him, "Why are you so smug? What did you bring?"

The guy pulls out a box of tampons and smiles. "I brought these," he says.

Puzzled by his choice, the other two ask, "What can you do with those?"

Grinning, he points to the package and says, "Well according to the box, I can go horseback riding, swimming, roller-skating. . . ."
