A salesman's wife was taking her time browsing through the
various items at a friend's yard sale. She said: "My husband is going
to be really angry that I stopped off at a yard sale."
"I'm sure he'll understand when you tell him about all the bargains you found," said the friend.
"Normally, yes. But he's just broken his leg falling from our roof, and he's waiting for me to take him to the hospital to have it set."
Moral of the story. True sales professionals know that before marriage a man "yearns" for the woman he loves. After marriage, the "y" becomes silent.
