A store that sells new husbands has opened in Toronto , where a woman
may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is
a description of how the store operates:
You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value
of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The
shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to
go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit
the building!
So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first
floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men have jobs.
She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 2 - These men have jobs and love children.
'That's nice,' she thinks, 'but I want more,' so she continues upward.
The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love children, and are extremely good looking.
'Wow,' she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.
She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love children, are drop-dead good
looking and help with the housework.
'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims, 'I can hardly stand it!'
>
Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love children, are drop-dead good
looking and help with the housework, and have a strong romantic
streak.
She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to thesixth floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men
on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are
impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.
PLEASE NOTE:
To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a New Wives
store just across the street.
The first floor has wives who love sex.
The second floor has wives who love sex, have money and like beer.
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited.

Just so you know I got mine on the 5th floor and he turns 76 today!
Happy Birthday, Dan!
