Earl was fixing a door and 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 and it costs $300."
"My goodness that sure is a lot of money!" Mary
exclaimed. Then
she proceeded to describe the hinge that Earl had sent
her to buy, and 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."
This is why you can't send a woman to a hardware
store.
