[Mishmash] The Husband store.

[Fred Atkinson]

 A store that sells new 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 this store ONLY ONCE!
 There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper
 ascends the
 flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may
 choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to
 exit the building! So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband.
 On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 - These men Have
 Jobs. She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign
 reads: Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids. "That's nice", she
 thinks, "but I want more.
 "So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men
 Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking. "Wow," she thinks,
but
 feels compelled to keep going. She goes to the fourth floor and the sign
 reads: Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking
 and Help With Housework.
 "Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it! "Still, she goes to
 the fifth floor and the sign reads: Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love
 Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong
 Romantic Streak. She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth
floor,
 where the sign reads:
 Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on
this
 floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to
 please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.
 PLEASE NOTE:
 To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a New Wives store
 just
 across the street. The first floor has wives that love sex. The second
floor
 has wives that love sex and have money. The third, fourth, fifth and sixth
 floors have never been visited.
