A store that sells husbands has just opened in Dallas, TX,
where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the
instructions at the entrance is a description of how the
store operates:
You may visit the store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and
the character attributes of the men increase as the shopper ascends
the flights.
There is, however, a catch?.. you may choose any man from a particular floor, or you may choose to go up a floor, but
you can not go back down except to exit the building!
So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband?..
On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men have jobs.
The second floor sign reads:
Floor 2 - These men have jobs and love kids.
The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love kids, and are extremely
good looking. "Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to
keep going.
She goes to the fourth floor and sign reads:
Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love kids, are drop-dead good looking
and help with the housework.
"Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!"
Still, she goes to the fifth floor and sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love kids, are drop-dead
gorgeous, help with the housework, and have a strong romantic streak.
She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor
and the sign reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 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 the Husband Store.
