Subject: Birthday rod and reel
A woman goes into Rebel sports to buy a rod and reel for her grandson's
Twenty first Birthday. She doesn't know which one to get so she
just grabs one and goes over to the counter. A Rebel check-out Clerk is
standing there wearing dark shades.
She says, "Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me anything about this rod
and reel?
He says, "Ma'am, I'm completely blind, but if you'll drop it on
the counter, I can tell you everything you need to know about it from
the sound it makes.
She doesn't believe him but drops it on the counter anyway.
He says, "That's a eight-foot surf caster Shakespeare graphite 667
Model rod fitted with a Shimano Calcutta 400 reel spooled with
20lb Berkley Fireline. It's a good all around combination and it's on
sale this week for only $199.00.
"She says, "It's amazing that you can tell all that just by the
sound of it dropping on the counter. I'll take it!"
As she opens her purse, her credit card drops on the floor.
She bends down to pick it up and accidentally breaks wind.
At first she is really embarrassed, but then realizes it's not
likely the blind clerk could tell it was she who farted. He may not
know she was the only person around.
The man rings up the sale and says, "That'll be $254.50 please."
The woman is totally confused by this and asks, "Didn't you tell
me it was on sale for $199.00? How did you get $254.50?"
He replies, "Yes, Ma'am, the rod and reel is $199.00, but the duck
caller is $36.00 and the fish bait is $19.50.
