THE TEAPOT

A husband working at some odd jobs around his house discovered that a hinge on the bedroom closet door was broken. He asked his wife if she would run down to the local hardware store and have Bob, the clerk, sell her a new hinge. When she got to the hardware store, Bob was busy with a customer so she looked around the store a bit to see what all they had. She spotted a teapot on a shelf and thought to herself that it was about the prettiest teapot she's ever seen.

In a few minutes Bob came over and asked her if she needed any help. She told him that she needed to purchase a new hinge for the closet door. Then she asked about the teapot.

"It's a real beauty, isn't it?" said Bob. "It's all silver and costs $100." The woman replied, "Whew! That's a lot of money." Bob then went to get the hinge for her. He asked, "Do you wanna screw for that hinge?" And she said. . . . .

"No. But I would for the teapot!"
