THE WIFE STORE
A store that sells wives has just opened in New York City, where
a man may go to choose a wife. Among the instructions at the
entrance is a description of how the store operates. You may visit
the store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the attributes of
the women increase as the shopper ascends the flights. There is,
however, a catch . . . you may choose any woman from a particular
floor, o r you may choose to go up a floor, but you cannot go back
down except to exit the building!
So, a man goes to the Wife Store to find a Wife . . .
On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 - These
women have jobs.
The second floor sign reads: Floor 2 - These women have jobs and
love sex.
The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These women have jobs, love
sex, and are extremely good looking. "Wow," he thinks, but feels
compelled to keep going.
He goes to the fourth floor and sign reads: Floor 4 - These
women have jobs, love sex, are drop-dead good looking and do the
housework
"Oh, mercy me!" he exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!"
Still, he goes to the fifth floor and sign reads: Floor 5 - These
women have jobs, love sex, are drop-dead gorgeous, help with the
housework, and cook gourmet meals.
He is so tempted to stay, but he goes to the sixth floor and the
sign reads: Floor 6 - You are visitor 3,456,012 to this floor.
There are no women on this floor. This floor exists solely as
proof that men are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at
the Wife Store.
Watch your step as you exit the building, and have a nice day!
