Harlow's Wife

Harlow was fixing a door and he found that he needed a new hinge, so he sent
his wife Mary to the hardware store.

At the hardware store, Mary saw a beautiful teapot on a top shelf while she
was waiting for Carl, the manager, to finish waiting on a customer. When Carl
was finished, Mary asked "How much for the teapot?"

Carl replied, "That's silver and it costs $100!"

"My goodness, that sure is a lotta money!" Mary exclaimed. Then she
proceeded to describe the hinge that Harlow had sent her to buy, and Carl went to the
back room to find it.

From the back room Carl yelled, "Mary , you wanna screw for that hinge?"'

Mary replied, "No, but I will for the teapot."

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