A friend asked me the other day
why I never got married. I replied "Well, I guess I
just never met the right woman... I guess I've been
looking for the perfect girl."
"Oh, come on now," said my friend. "Surely you have
met at least one girl that you wanted to marry."
"Yes, there was one girl... once. I guess she was
the one perfect girl -- the only perfect girl I
really ever met. She was just the right
everything... I really mean that she was the perfect
girl for me."
"Well, why didn't you marry her?" asked my friend. I
shrugged my shoulders and replied, "She was looking
for the perfect man."
A husband and wife are
traveling by car from Atlanta to New York. After
almost twenty-four hours on the road, they decide to
stop at a nice hotel and take a room. They only plan
to sleep for four hours and then get back on the
road. When they check out four hours later, the desk
clerk hands them a bill for $350. The man explodes
and demands to know why the charge is so high. He
tells the clerk although it's a nice hotel, the
rooms certainly aren't worth $350. When the clerk
explains that $350 is the standard rate, the man
insists
on speaking to the manager.
The manager enters the conversation and explains
that the hotel has an Olympic-sized pool and a huge
conference center which were available for the
husband and wife to use.
He also explains that they could have taken in one
of the shows which the hotel is famous for. "The
best entertainers from New York, Hollywood and Las
Vegas perform here,"
explains the manager.
No matter what facility the manager mentions, the
man replies, "But we didn't use it!"
The manager is unmoved. Eventually the man gives up
and agrees to pay. He writes a check and hands it to
the manager. "But sir," the managers says, "this
check is only made out for $100."
"That's right," replies the man. "I charged you $250
for sleeping with my wife."
"What! I didn't sleep with your wife!" exclaims the
manager.
"Well," the man replies, "she was here, and you
could have."
The room was full of pregnant
women and their partners, and the Lamaze class was
in full swing. The instructor was teaching the women
how to breathe properly, along with informing the
men how to give the necessary assurances at this
stage of the plan.
The teacher then announced, "Ladies, exercise is
good for you. Walking is especially beneficial. And,
gentlemen, it wouldn't hurt you to take the time to
go walking with your partner!"
The room really got quiet. Finally, a man in the
middle of the group raised his hand. "Yes?" replied
the teacher. "Is it alright if she carries a golf
bag while we walk?" |
