Guy walks into Eagle Hardware. Says, I'd like to buy some 4x2's. Salesman says, You mean 2x4's, don't you? Guy says, Let me go out to the truck and ask my dad. Comes back in and says, Yeah, we want some 2x4's. Salesman says, O.K., How many do you want? Guy says, Uh, Let me go out to the truck and check. Comes back in and says, We'd like to buy 200 2x4's. Salesman says, Fine, and how long would you want them? Guy says, I'll be back in a minute. Comes back in and says, We want them for a long time, we're going to build a house! |
