How Much Is Your Husband/Boyfriend Worth?


      My friend Sally was driving home from one of her business trips in Northern Arizona

      when she saw an elderly Navajo woman walking on the side of the road. As the

      trip was a long and quiet one, she stopped the car and asked the Navajo

      woman if she would like a ride. With a silent nod of thanks, the woman got

      into the car.


      Resuming the journey, Sally tried in vain to make a bit of small talk with

      the woman. The old woman just sat silently, looking intently at everything

      she saw, studying every little detail, until she noticed a brown bag on the

      seat next to Sally.


      "What in bag?" asked the old woman.


      Sally looked down at the brown bag and said, "It's a bottle of wine. I got

      it for my husband."

The Navajo woman was silent for another moment or two.


      Then speaking with the quiet wisdom of an elder, she said:


      "Good trade....."

A (male) friend of mine read the above story and sent me an email with the question: "Then, how much is your wife/girlfriend worth?"

I replied: "Depends on how horny you are."
