When I say I'm Broke, I'm Broke.

Everyone can use a little humor. Good-natured jokes and stories can brighten a day and go well with that first cup of coffee. (Let's keep'em clean)

When I say I'm Broke, I'm Broke.

Post by Emery »

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."

"Go away," said the old lady. "I haven't got any money, I'm broke..." and 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."

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

"If this vacuum cleaner does not remove all traces of this horse
manure from your carpet, madam, I will personally eat the remainder."

The old lady stepped back and said "Well I hope you've got a darn good appetite, because they cut off my electricity this morning. What part of broke did you not understand?"
Be ye kind one unto another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:32
