A humorous encounter this morning

I needed some AAA batteries, so I ran out this morning to the local Rite-Aid. I got there just as they opened. I was the only one in the store, so I got what I needed and headed straight to the checkout where a cute young woman was waiting.

She rang up my batteries and saw that I had my credit card with chip in hand. She tapped a couple of things on her register screen and then said, "OK. I am ready for you to stick it in now".

It took less than a half second until she realized what she had said and then turned bright red. I tried to stifle my reaction, but could not and a laugh came out. I told her not to worry as I have been married a long time and am used to getting instructions. She had a good laugh at that. Hopefully this was a good start to her day.

Good point. You don't want to be arrested for statutory insertion.

I dated a smoking hot chick back in the late 80's who just happened to be the local high school girls basketball Coach. The line from John Fogerty' song "Centerfield" was our favorite.

"Put me in Coach, I'm ready to play..."

Try asking a sales lady at a hardware store to show you where the penetrating lubricant is kept.

Young women never see the humor in that sort of thing. But you get a woman in her 40s, and she'd laugh if you pulled out a second card and asked if you could try a 3-way.

My landscaper told me a few months ago about his quick stop at the drug store for some vaseline and D cell batteries! He got a VERY funny look from the cashier.

They laugh at "That's what she said" more than the guys.

Our first year of selling Christmas trees, I knew very little about the trees. We're around 900 miles from where they are cut and loaded so we have them brought in on semi trucks.

Anyway, a nice lady with her teenage daughter are looking at the trees. We have a very upscale place, so the affluent types come shop there and they always have a great time. The nice lady asks me stuff like where was the tree from, what kind of tree, etc. Well, in my first season, I had to look at the tag on the trunk, at the very bottom of the tree. So I reach down to pull up on the bottom branches, and start looking for the tag. After around 10 seconds or so, I stand back up and look at the mom and before telling her which farm it's from, what species the tree is, and it's height, I say "Well. It's a boy.....". The mom could not stop laughing. The daugher looked absolutely mortified by her mother's reaction. Yeah, they bought the tree.

My wife had her fellow yoga gal friend over for a drink the other night. We've got 4 lounge chairs on our deck, as we all were getting settled with out drinks & lounges, my wife says to her friend, " pull it over here so we can have a threesome"............I looked up and caught the eye of the Yoga friend, she looked kinda worried...then we all laughed.
