Sending the Wife to the Hardware Store
Harlow was fixing a door & he found that he needed a new hinge, so he sent his wife Mary to the hardware store.
At the hardware store, Mary saw a beautiful teapot on a top shelf while she was waiting for Carl, the manager, to finish waiting on a customer.
When Carl was finished, Mary asked "How much for the teapot?"
Carl replied "That's silver, & it costs $100!"
"My goodness, that sure is a lotta money!" Mary exclaimed.
Then she proceeded to describe the hinge that Harlow had sent her to buy, & Carl went to the back room to find it.
From the back room Carl yelled "Mary, you wanna screw for that hinge?"
Mary replied "No, but I will for the teapot." ¶ 10/19/2005 10:46:00 PM
