Wind Breaker

[Chris Lawrence]

A woman goes into Rays Outdoors 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.

The salesman is standing there, wearing dark glasses. She says:

"Excuse me, can you tell me anything about this rod and reel?"

He says: "Madam, 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 Shakespeare graphite rod with a Zebco 404 reel and 10 lb test line.

It's a good all round combination, and it's on sale this week for $44."

She says, "It's amazing that you can tell all that just by the sound. I'll take it!"

As she opens her purse, her credit card drops to the floor.

"Oh, that sounds like a Visa card, he says.

As the lady bends down to pick up the card, she accidentally breaks wind.

At first she is really embarrassed, but then realises there is no way the blind

salesman could tell it was she who had farted.

The salesman rings up the sale and says, "That'll be $58.50 please."

The woman is confused by this and asks, "Didn't you tell me it was on sale this week for $44?"

The salesman replies, "Yes, but the duck caller is $11 and the blood and bone is $3.50."
