From the late, beloved Mel Lett. I am slowly moving his better material to this site.

This is why you can’t send a woman to a hardware store……….

Bubba was fixing a door and he found that he needed a new hinge, so he sent his wife, Mary Louise, to the hardware store to get one. At the hardware store Mary Louise saw a beautiful teapot on the top shelf while she was waiting for Joe Bob the manager to finish waiting on a customer.

When Joe Bob was finished, Mary Louise asked how much for the teapot. Joe Bob replied, “that’s silver and it costs $100.00

My goodness, that sure is a lot of money Mary Louise exclaimed! Then she proceeded to describe the hinge that Bubba had sent her to buy and Joe Bob went to the back room to find one.

From the back room Joe Bob yelled, “Mary Louise, you wanna screw for that hinge?”

To which Mary Louise quickly replied, “No, but I will for the teapot.”
