When you're broke, you're broke!
A little old lady answered a knock on the door one day, only to be
confronted by a well-dressed, young man carrying a vacuum cleaner.
'Good morning,' said the young man. 'If I could take a couple minutes of
your time, I would like to demonstrate the very latest in high-powered
vacuum cleaners.'
'Go away,' said the old lady. 'I haven't got any money, I'm broke!' As
she proceeded to close the door, the young man wedged his foot in the
door and pushed it wide open.
'Don't be too hasty,' he said, 'Not until you have at least seen my
demonstration!' And with that, he emptied a bucket of horse manure onto
her hallway carpet.'
'If this vacuum cleaner does not remove all traces of this horse manure
from your carpet, Madam, I will personally eat the remainder.
The old lady stepped back and said, 'Well I hope you've got a damned good
appetite, because they cut off my electricity this morning.'
What part of broke do you not understand?
