A little old lady answered a knock on the door one day, only to be
confronted by a well-dressed young man carrying a vacuum cleaner.
"Good morning," said the young man. "If I could take a couple of minutes of
your time, I would like to demonstrate the very latest in high-powered
vacuum cleaners."
"Get lost!" said the old lady. "I haven't got any money." And, with that,
she proceeded to close the door.
Quick as a flash, the young man wedged his foot in the door and pushed it
wide open.
"Don't be too hasty!" he said. "Not until you have at least seen my
demonstration." And with that, he emptied a bucket of horse doo doo's all over
her hallway carpet.
"If this vacuum cleaner does not remove all traces of this mess from your
carpet, Madam, I will personally eat the remainder."
"Well," she said, "I hope you've got a good appetite, because the
electricity was cut off this morning.
