A little old lady answered a knock on her door

A little old lady answered a knock on her door one day to find a well-dressed young man carrying a vacuum cleaner.

“Good morning,” said the young man.

“If I could take a couple of minutes of your time, I’d like to demonstrate the latest in high-powered vacuum cleaners.”

The old lady responded,

“Go away! I don’t have any money,” and began to close the door.

Quick as a flash, the young man wedged his foot in the door and pushed it wide open.

“Don’t be too hasty! Let me show you what this vacuum can do.”

He then dumped a bucket of horse manure onto her hallway carpet.

“If this vacuum cleaner doesn’t remove every trace of this mess, I’ll eat the rest of it myself.”

The old lady stepped back, smiled, and said,

“Well, I hope you’ve got a big appetite because they cut off my electricity this morning!”
