One day Mikey was sitting in his apartment
when his
doorbell unexpectedly rang. He answered the door and found a
salesman
standing on his porch with a strange object.
“What is
that?” Mikey asked. “It’s a thermos,” the salesman
replied. “What
does it do?” asked Mikey. “This baby,” the salesman said,
“keeps hot
things hot and cold things cold.”
After some deliberation Mikey
bought one, deciding it would really help
his lunch situation. The next
day he arrived at the plant where he
works. Sure enough, all the
other employees were curious about his new
object. “What is it?” they
asked.
“It’s a thermos,” Mikey replied.
“What does it do?” they
asked.
“Well,” Mikey says in a bragging manner, “It keeps hot things
hot
and cold things cold.”
“What do ya got in it?”
To which
Mikey says, “Three cups of coffee and a popsicle.”
