A woman goes into Wal-Mart to buy a rod and reel for her grandson's >>birthday. She doesn't know which one to get so she just grabs one and goes >>over to the counter. A Wal-Mart associate 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 six-foot Shakespeare graphite rod with a Zebco 404 reel >>and 10-LB. Test line. It's a good all around combination; and it's on sale >>this week for only $20.00.">>>>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.>>>>"Oh, that sounds like a Master Card," he says.>>>>She bends down to pick it up and accidentally breaks wind. At first she is >>really embarrassed, but then realizes there is no way the blind clerk >>could tell it was she who tooted. Being blind, he wouldn't know that she >>was the only person around.>>>>The man rings up the sale and says, "That'll be $34.50 please. ">>>>The woman is totally confused by this and asks, "Didn't you tell me it was >>on sale for $20.00? How did you get $34! .50?">>>>He replies, "Yes, Ma'am. The rod and reel is $20.00, but the Duck Call is >>$11.00 and the Catfish Bait is $3.50.">>
