A store that sells husbands has just opened where a woman may go to choose
a husband from among many men. The store is composed of 6 floors, and the
men increase in positive attributes as the shopper ascends the flights.
There is, however, a catch. As you open the door to any floor you may
choose a man from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot go back
down except to exit the building. So a woman goes to the shopping center
to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men have good jobs.
The woman reads the sign and says to herself, "Well, that's better than my
last boyfriend, but I wonder what's further up?" So up she goes.
The second floor sign reads:
Floor 2 - These men have good jobs and love kids.
The woman remarks to herself, "That's great, but I wonder what's further
up?" And up she goes again.
The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These men have good jobs, love kids and are extremely handsome.
"Hmmm, better" she says. "But I wonder what's upstairs?"
The fourth floor sign reads:
Floor 4 - These men have good jobs, love kids, are extremely handsome and
help with the housework.
"Wow!" exclaims the woman, "very tempting. BUT, there must be someone even
better further up!" And again she heads up another flight.
The fifth floor sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men have good jobs, love kids, are extremely handsome, help
with the housework and have a strong romantic streak.
"Oh, mercy me! But just think. . . what must be awaiting me further
on?" So up to the sixth floor she goes.
The sixth floor sign reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 3,456,789,012 to this floor. There are no men
on this floor. This floor exists solely to prove that women are
impossible to please.
Thank you for shopping at The Husband Store and have a nice day.
