A husband shopping center (HusbandMart) has just opened where a woman
may
go to 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 if you go up a floor, you
cannot
go back down except to exit the building.
So a 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
123,456,789,012,345
to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists
solely as
proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at
HusbandMart and have a nice day."
