Truck for sale

[nochawk]

A fifteen year-old boy came home with a new Chevrolet Avalanche and
his parents began to yell and scream, 'Where did you get that truck???!!!'
He calmly told them, 'I bought it today.'

'With what money?' demanded his parents. They knew what a Chevrolet
Avalanche cost.

'Well,' said the boy, 'this one cost me just fifteen dollars.' So the
parents began to yell even louder. 'Who would sell a truck like that for
fifteen dollars?' they s aid.

'It was the lady up the street,' said the boy. I don't know her name -
they just moved in. She saw me r ide past on my bike and asked me if I
wanted to buy a Chevrolet Avalanche for fifteen dollars.'

'Oh my Goodness!,' moaned the mother, 'she must be a child abuser. Who
knows what she will do next? John, you go right up there and see what's
going on.' So the boy's father walked up the street to the house where the
lady lived and found her out in the yard calmly planting petunias! He
introduced himself as the father of the boy to whom she had sold a new
Chevrolet Avalanche for fifteen dollars and demanded to know why she did it.

'Well,' she said, 'this morning I got a phone call from my husband. I
thought he was on a business trip, but learned from a friend he had run off
to Hawaii with his mistress and really doesn't intend to come back He
claimed he was stranded and needed cash, and asked me to sell his new
Chevrolet Avalanche and send him the money. So I did.'
