Husband Mart
A store that sells husbands has just
opened in Calgary. In it a woman may choose a husband from among
many men. The store is comprised of six floors, and the men
increase in positive attributes as the shopper ascends the
flights.
There is, however,
a catch. As you open the door to any floor you may choose a man
from that floor, but when you go up a floor, you cannot go back
down except to exit the building.
So a certain woman goes to the
shopping center to find a husband.
On the first floor the sign on
the door reads:
Floor 1 - These
men have jobs. The woman reads the sign and says to herself,
"Well, that's better than my last boyfriend, but I wonder what's
further up?" So up she goes.
The second floor sign reads:
Floor 2 - These
men have jobs and love kids. The woman remarks to herself, "That's
great, but I wonder what's further up?" And up she goes again.
The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These
men have jobs, love kids and are extremely good looking. "Hmmm,
better" she says. "But I wonder what's upstairs?"
The fourth floor sign reads:
Floor 4 - These
men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking
and help with the housework. "Wow!" exclaims the woman, "very
tempting. BUT, there must
be more further up!" And again she heads up another
flight.
The fifth floor sign reads:
Floor 5 - These
men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good
looking, help with
the housework and have a strong romantic streak. "Oh, mercy
me! But just
think... what must be awaiting me further on?" So up to the sixth
floor she goes.
The sixth floor sign reads:
Floor 6 - You
are visitor 3,456. There are no men on this floor. It floor exists
solely as proof that women are impossible to please.
Thank you for shopping
Husband Mart and have a nice day.
