After being away on business, Tim thought it would be nice to bring his wife a little gift.
“How about some perfume?” he asked the cosmetics clerk.
She showed him a $50.00 bottle.
“That’s a bit much,” said Tim, so she returned with a smaller bottle for $30.00.
“That’s still quite a bit,” Tim complained.
Growing annoyed, the clerk brought out a tiny $15.00 bottle.
“What I mean,” said Tim, “is I’d like to see something really cheap.”
The clerk handed him a mirror.
Susan’s Washing Machine Breaks Down.
Since she has to go to work the next day, she tells him, “I’ll leave the key under the mat. Fix the dishwasher, leave the bill on the counter, and I’ll send you a cheque.”
“Oh, by the way don’t worry about my bulldog Spike. He won’t bother you.
But, whatever you do, do not, under any circumstances, talk to my parrot! I mean it. Don’t talk to my parrot.”
“When the repairman arrives at Susan’s house the following day, he discovers the biggest, meanest looking bulldog he has ever seen. But, just as she had said, the dog just lies there on the carpet watching him go about his work.
The parrot, however, drives him nuts the whole time with his incessant yelling, cursing and name calling. Finally the repairman can’t contain himself any longer and yells: “Shut up, you stupid, ugly bird!”
To which the parrot replies: “Get him, Spike!”
