Damned Yankees

Two New York businessmen off Broadway were sitting down for a break in their soon-to-be new store. As yet, the store wasn't ready, with only a few shelves set up.



One said to the other, 'I'll bet any minute now some idiot tourist is going to walk by, put his face to the window, and ask what we're selling.'

No sooner were the words out of his mouth when, sure enough, a curious Texan walked to the window, had a peek, and in a thick drawl asked 'What're you fellers sellin' here?'

One of the men replied sarcastically, 'We're selling backside-holes.'

Without skipping a beat, the Texan said, 'You're doing right well .. only two left!'

Yankees - God bless them - should not mess with Texans.

And that's a fact! I'd put it capital letters to stress the emphasis but as sure as I did some damn Yankee would claim I was shouting again when all I was doing was emphasizing the point.
