Subject: [Sndbox] Would you?A lady is throwing a party for her granddaughter, and had gone all
out..... a caterer, band, and a hired clown. Just before the party
started, two bums showed up looking for a handout. Feeling sorry for the
bums, the woman told them that she would give them a meal if they will
help chop some wood for her out back. Gratefully, they headed to the
rear of the house.
The guests arrived, and all was going well with the children having a
wonderful time. But the clown hadn't shown up. After a half an hour, the
clown finally called to report that he was stuck in traffic, and would
probably not make the party at all.
The woman was very disappointed and unsuccessfully tried to entertain
the children herself. She happened to look out the window and saw one of
the bums doing cartwheels across the lawn. She watched in awe as he
swung from tree branches, did midair flips, and leaped high in the air.
She spoke to the other bum and said, "What your friend is doing is
absolutely marvelous. I have never seen such a thing. Do you think your
friend would consider repeating this performance for the children at the
party? I would pay him $50!"
The other bum says, "Well, I dunno. Let me ask him. HEY WILLIE! FOR $50,
WOULD YOU CHOP OFF ANOTHER TOE?"Charles Mims
