Mistaken Assumption
A salesman checked into a futuristic motel.
Realizing he needed a Haircut before the next day's
meeting, he called down to the desk clerk to ask if
there was a barber on the premises.
"I'm afraid not, sir," the clerk told him apologetically,
"but down the hall from your room is a vending machine
that should serve your purposes."
Skeptical but intrigued, the salesman located the machine,
inserted $15.00, and stuck his head into the
opening, at which time the machine started to buzz and
whirl. Fifteen seconds later the salesman pulled out his
head and surveyed his reflection, which reflected the
best haircut of his life.
Two feet away was another machine with a sign that
read, 'Manicures, $20.00.'
"Why not?" thought the salesman.
He paid the money, inserted his hands into the slot, and
the machine started to buzz and whirl. Fifteen seconds
later he pulled out his hands and they were perfectly
manicured.
The next machine had a sign that read, 'This Machine
Provides a Service Men Need When Away from Their
Wives, 50 Cents.'
The salesman looked both ways, put fifty cents in the
machine, unzipped his fly, and with some anticipation,
stuck his manhood into the opening.
When the machine started buzzing, the guy let out a
shriek of agony and almost passed out. Fifteen seconds
later it shut off.
With trembling hands, the salesman was able to
withdraw his tender unit... which now had a button
sewn on the end.
