Posters - another "participation" joke for your amusment...
Procutus is in an Ohio supermarket where he tries to buy half a head of lettuce. Andrew, the very young produce assistant tells him that they sell only whole heads of lettuce. Proc persists and asks to see the manager. Andrew says he'll ask his manager, Tank about it.
Walking into the back room, Andrew said to Tank, "Some ******* wants to buy half a head of lettuce." As he finished his sentence, he turned to find Procutus standing right behind him, so he added, "And this gentleman has kindly offered to buy the other half."
Tank, the manager approved the deal, and Proc went on his way. Later Tank said to Andrew, "I was impressed with the way you got yourself out of that situation earlier. We like people who think on their feet here. Where are you from, son?"
"Windsor, Ontario, Canada, sir," Andrew replied.
"Well, why did you leave Canada?" Tank asked.
Andrew said, "Sir, there's nothing but whores and hockey players up there."
"Really?" said Tank. "My wife is from Canada."
"No shit??" replied Andrew. "Who'd she play for?"
My belated OI Forum welcome to Andrew - may you enjoy your stay as much as the rest of us clowns.
