Rent for Apartment
A man met a beautiful girl and she agreed to spend the night with
him for $500. So, they spent the night together. In the morning,
before he left, he told the girl that he did not have any
cash with him, but that he would have his secretary write
a check and mail it to her, calling the payment "Rent for
Apartment."
On the way to the office, he regretted what he had done, realizing
that the whole event was not worth the price. So, he sent a check
for $250 and enclosed a note:
"Dear
Madam: Enclosed you will find a check in the amount of $250 for
rent of your apartment.
I am not sending the amount agreed upon because when I rented the
apartment,
I was under the impression that:
1. It had never been occupied;
2. There was plenty of heat;
3. It was small enough to make me cozy and
at home.
Last night, however,
I found out that it had been previously occupied, that there
wasn't any heat, and that it
was entirely too large."
Upon receipt
of the note, the girl immediately sent back the following reply:
"Dear Sir: First of all,
I cannot understand how you expect such a beautiful apartment to
remain unoccupied
indefinitely. As for the heat, there is plenty of it if you know
how to turn it on. Regarding
the space, the apartment is indeed of regular size, but if you don't
have enough furniture
to fill it, please don't blame the landlord.
