|
|
Susan was driving home from one of her teaching assignments in Northern Arizona. She saw an elderly Navajo woman walking on the side of the road.
As the trip was a long and quiet one, she stopped the car and asked the Navajo woman if she would like a ride. The woman climbed into the car and Susan resumed driving.
After a bit of small talk, the Navajo woman noticed a bag on the seat next to Susan. "What in bag?" asked the woman.
Susan glanced at the bag and said "It's a bottle of wine. I got it for my husband."
The Navajo woman was silent for a moment. Then speaking with the quiet wisdom of an elder said,
"Good trade. "

| My mom spammed me that one a few years ago and to this day it is still one of my favorite jokes. I tell it to my Japanese students who are learning English, translating a bit when needed, and they think it's a riot! Knowing I love booze, they always ask me how much I think my husband is worth! |
