Buying Husbands

A store that sells husbands has just opened in New York City, where a woman may go to choose a husband.

Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates. You may visit the store ONLY ONCE!

There are six floors and the attributes of the men get better and better as the shopper ascends the floors.There is, however, a catch...You may choose any man from a particular floor, or you may choose to go up a floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!

So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a PERFECT husband...

On the first floor the sign on the door reads:

Floor 1 - These men have jobs and love God. She skips this floor and goes up to the next one.

The second floor sign reads:

Floor 2 - These men have jobs, love God, and love kids. But again, she skips this floor.

The third floor sign reads:

Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love God, love kids, and are extremely good looking.

"Wow," she thinks, but once more feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the fourth floor and sign reads:

Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love God, love kids, and are drop-dead good looking and help wives with the housework.

"Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!"

Still, she goes up to the fifth floor and sign reads:

Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love God, love kids, and are drop-dead gorgeous, help wives with the housework, and have a strong romantic streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she is determined to go to the sixth and last floor where the sign reads:

Floor 6 - You are visitor No. 4,363,013 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are quite impossible to please.

Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.

Watch your step as you exit the building, and have a nice day!
