| An older lady was out shopping when she notices a very expensive boutique advertising, "DRESSES AND HATS ON SALE." She can't resist a sale and goes inside and starts trying on dresses and hats. After awhile, she finds only a hat that she really likes and buys it. When she steps back outside, a fierce wind has picked up on her way down the street to the bus stop. While she is standing there at her stop, she is quite worried that the wind might blow off her brand new hat. So she holds on to it with both hands. Not paying mind to anything else, she soon feels a tap on her shoulder and turns to see a young man there who says, "Excuse me, ma'am, but why are you just holding your hat while your dress is blowing clear up to your elbows?" The old woman replies, "Son, I've had what's under this dress for almost eighty-six years, but I've only had this hat for half an hour!" |
