Delbert goes Shopping
« on: February 12, 2005, 10:41:35 AM »

Delbert and Billy Ray were down from Arkansas visiting a relative in Texas. Walking along Sam Houston Street, they see a sign on a store which reads, "Suits $5.00 each, shirts $2.00 each, trousers $2.50 per pair."
Delbert says to his pal, "Billy Ray, Look! We could buy a whole lot of
those, and when we get back to Arkansas, we could make a fortune. Now
when we go into the shop, you be quiet, okay? Just let me do all the
talking cause if they hear our accent, they might not be nice to us.
I'll speak in my best Texas drawl."

They go in and Delbert says, "I'll take 50 suits at $5.00 each, 100 shirts

at $2.00 each, and 50 pairs of trousers at $2.50 each. I'll back up my
pickup and ....."

The owner of the shop interrupts, "You're from Arkansas, aren't you?"

"Well...yes," says a surprised Delbert. "How come you know that?"

The owner says, "This is a dry-cleaners."

Delbert's Tip Of the Week: "I've learned that you can keep vomiting long after you think you're finished."
Aut viam inveniam aut faciam - I will either find a way or make one.  "Can't lives on Won't street."

Let us be reminded of what Captain John Parker told his army at Lexington Green, the place where the War for Independence began in 1775. He said, “Stand your ground. Don’t fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here.
