One day, a man walked into the produce section of his local
supermarket and asked to buy half a head of lettuce. The boy
working in that department told him that they only sold whole
heads of lettuce. But the man was insistent that the boy ask
his manager about the matter.
Walking into the back room, the boy said to his manager, "Some
jerk out there wants to buy only half a head of lettuce." As he
finished his sentence, he turned to find the man standing right
behind him, so he added, "and this gentleman wants to buy the
other half."
Later the manager found the boy and said "I was impressed with
the way you got yourself out of that situation earlier. We like
people who think on their feet here. Where are you from, son?"
"Boajvill, sir," the boy replied.
"Well, why did you leave Boajvill for," the manager asked.
The boy said, "Sir, there's nothing up there but ugly women and
baseball players."
"Really!" said the manager. "My wife is from Boajvill!"
"No kidding?" replied the boy "What team did she play for?"
