"But Mom, I've only begun to eat!"
Two single women are on the town for a "shop-'til-we-drop" day out when they come across the grand opening of a new "husband store".
Intrigued, they enter and a salesman comes up to them and explains how the store works. "You can take the elevator up and shop, floor by floor. At each of our 6 floors, the elevator will stop and you will see a display featuring the traits of the men on that floor. When you find a floor with the model of a man you like, you can get off the elevator and choose from several of our carefully selected gentlemen, in a variety of Nationalities and skin tones, who will gladly agree to become your future husband. However, you may ride the elevator only once, and once you get off you will not be able to get back on except to exit the store, so if you are sincerely interested in finding a mate, make sure you pick someone before you reach the top. Good luck!"
So the ladies get into the elevator and it takes them up to the first floor. The doors open and the sign reads "First Floor - Average looking men - construction workers."
The ladies decide to pass and take the elevator to the second floor. Here the sign reads "Handsome men - alcoholics."
The ladies decide to continue onward. The third floor sign reads "Handsome men, sober but unemployed."
The ladies see how, as they go higher, the quality improves, so they decide to proceed to the 4th floor, where the sign reads "Average looking men, successful executives."
Excited at the prospects on this floor, the women hesitate for just a moment, but then remember that there are two more floors ahead of them.
The sign here reads "Handsome older men, doctors and lawyers."
The ladies are almost ready to get out at this floor, but they think, "If these men are here, imagine what there will be on the 6th floor," so they decide to press on.
When they get to the 6th floor, the elevator doors open and there is only a door marked "EXIT" with a sign saying "There is nothing on this floor. This floor only serves to point out how women will never be happy with the men they could have had and are always on the look-out for something better. Have a nice day."
