[SOC] Fwd: FW: Paint the porch

[john bell]

A young blonde in her late teens, wanting to earn some extra money for 
the summer, decided to hire herself out as a “handy woman” and she 
started canvassing a nearby well-to-do neighborhood. She went to the 
front door of a lovely house and asked the owner if he had any odd jobs 
for her to do.
“Well, I guess I could use somebody to paint the porch” he said. “How 
much will you charge me?”
Delighted, the girl quickly responded, “How about $50 ?”
The man agreed and told her that the paint and brushes and everything 
she would need were in the garage.
The man’s wife, hearing the conversation, said to her husband, “Does she 
realize that our porch goes ALL the way around the house?”
“That’s a bit cynical, isn’t it?” he responded.
The wife replied, “Well I hope you feel good exploiting a nice young 
girl like that but on the other hand, I guess I’m starting to believe 
all those dumb-blonde jokes.”
A few hours later, the blonde came to the door to collect her money.
“You’re finished already??” the startled husband asked.
“Yes,” the blonde replied, “and I even had paint left over, so I gave it 
two coats.”
Impressed, the man reached into his pocket for the $50 and handed it to 
her along with a $10 tip.
“Thank you,” the blonde said, “…and, by the way…it’s not a Porch, it’s a 
Lexus.”
