A Little Old Lady Answered A Knock.

A little old lady answered a knock on the door one day and was confronted by a well-dressed young man carrying a vacuum cleaner.

“Good morning,” said the young man.

“If I could take a couple minutes of your time, I’d like to demonstrate the very latest in high-powered vacuum cleaners.”

”Go away!” said the old lady.

”I haven’t got any money!” and she proceeded to close the door.

Quick as a flash, the young man wedged his foot in and pushed the door wide open.

”Don’t be too hasty! Not until you have at least seen my demonstration.”

With that, he emptied a bucket of horse manure onto her hallway carpet and bragged,

“Now if this vacuum cleaner does not remove all traces of this horse manure from your carpet, Madam, I will eat every bit of the remainder.”

The old lady stepped back and said, “Well, let me get you a fork, buster, ’cause they cut off my electricity this morning.”
