Guest guest Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Food Funny I was walking down the street when I was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless woman who asked me for a couple of dollars for dinner. I took out my wallet, got out ten dollars and asked, " If I give you this money, will you buy some wine with it instead of dinner? " " No, I had to stop drinking years ago " , the homeless woman told me. " Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food? " I asked. " No, I don't waste time shopping, " the homeless woman said. " I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive. " " Will you spend this on a beauty salon instead of food? " I asked. " Are you NUTS! " replied the homeless woman. " I haven't had my hair done in 20 years! " " Well, " I said, " I'm not going to give you the money. Instead, I'm going to take you out for dinner with my husband and me tonight. " The homeless woman was shocked. " Won't your husband be furious with you for doing that? I know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty disgusting. " I said, " That's okay. It's important for him to see what a woman looks like after she has given up shopping, hair appointments, and wine.
