Painting the Porch
A blonde teenager, wanting to earn some extra money for the summer,
decided to hire herself out as a 'handy-woman' and started canvassing
a nearby well-to-do neighborhood. She went to the front door of the
first house and asked the owner if he had any odd jobs for her to do.
"Well, I guess I could use somebody to paint my porch," he said. "How
much will you charge me?"
Delighted, the girl quickly responded, "How about $50?" The man agreed
and told her that the paint brushes and everything she would need was
in the garage.
The man's wife, hearing the conversation said to her husband, "Does
she realize that our porch goes ALL the way around the house?"
He responded, "She'll find that out shortly."
The wife replied, "You're right. I guess I'm starting to believe all
those dumb blonde jokes we've been getting by email lately."
Later that day, the blonde came to the door to collect her money.
"You're finished already?" the startled husband asked.
"Yes," the blonde replied, "and I even had paint left over, so I gave
it two coats."
Impressed, the man reached into his pocket for the $50 and handed it
to her along with a ten dollar tip.
"And, by the way," the blonde added, "It"s not a Porch, it's a Lexus."
