The Blind Clerk

A woman goes into Wal-Mart to buy a rod and reel for her grandsons birthday.
She doesn't know which one to get so she just grabs one and goes over to the
counter. A Wal-Mart associate is standing there wearing dark shades.

She says, "Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me anything about this rod and reel?

He says, "Ma'am, I'm completely blind; but if you'll drop it on the counter,
I can tell you everything you need to know about it from the sound it
makes."

She doesn't believe him but drops it on the counter anyway.

He says, "That's a six-foot Shakespeare graphite rod with a Zebco 404 reel
and 10-LB. test line. It's a good all around combination; and it's on sale
this week for only $20.00."

She says, "It's amazing that you can tell all that just by the sound of it
dropping on the counter. I'll take it!" As she opens her purse, her credit
card drops on the floor.

"Oh, that sounds like a Visa card," he says.

She bends down to pick it up and accidentally breaks wind. At first she is
really embarrassed, but then realizes there is no way the blind clerk could
tell it was she who farted. Being blind, he wouldn't know that she was only
person around.

The man rings up the sale and says, "That'll be $34.50 please."

The woman is totally confused by this and asks, "Didn't you tell me it was
on sale for $20.00? How did you get $34.50?"

He replies, "Yes, Ma'am. The rod and reel is $20.00, but the Duck Call is
$11.00 and the Catfish Bait is $3.50."

How can I convince my wife I'm working when I'm laughing out loud!

There's a logging version of this joke with the blind timber grader. It's not going to be told here. NDD's is funnier anyway.

Perhaps you'll share via a PM, Mr. Harsey?

Ahh Mr. Harsey you're a fine gentleman, looking out for us "XX" types.

OTOH I've been known to make Marines blush...I promise I can handle it.

Incoming via pm Ma'am.

Anyone who can make a Marine blush has my complete and total respect.
