Cheating Husband
Loses Porsche
A man saw an ad in the
paper for an "almost new" Porsche, in excellent condition - price
$50. He was certain the printers had made a typographical error, but
even at $5,000 it would have been a bargain, so he hurried to the
address to look at the car.
A nice-looking woman
appeared at the front door. Yes, she had placed the ad. The price
was indeed $50. "The car," she said, "is in the garage. Come and
look at it."
The fellow was
overwhelmed. It was a beautiful Porsche and, as the ad promised,
"nearly new." He asked if he could drive the car around the block.
The woman said, "Of course," and went with him. The Porsche drove
like a dream. The young man peeled off $50 and handed it over,
somewhat sheepishly. The woman gave him the necessary papers, and
the car was his.
Finally, the new owner
couldn't stand it any longer. He had to know why the woman would
sell the Porsche at such a ridiculously low price. Her reply was
simple:
With a half-smile on her
face, she said, "My husband ran off with his secretary a few days
ago and left a note instructing me to sell the car and the house,
and send him the money."
