In
September, a bald man with a wooden leg gets invited to a
Halloween party. He doesn't know what costume to wear to
hide his head and his leg so he writes to a costume
company to explain his problem.
A few days later he received
a parcel with the following note:
Dear Sir:
Please find enclosed a
pirate's outfit. The spotted handkerchief will cover your
bald head and, with your wooden leg, you will be just
right as a pirate.
Very truly yours,
Acme Costume Co.
The
man thinks this is terrible because they have just
emphasized his wooden leg and so he writes a letter of
complaint. A week goes by and he receives another parcel
and a note, which says:
Dear Sir:
Please find enclosed a
monk's habit. The long robe will cover your wooden leg
and, with your bald head, you will really look the part.
Very truly yours,
Acme Costume Co.
Now the man is really
upset since they have gone from emphasizing his wooden leg
to emphasizing his bald head so again he writes the
company another nasty letter of complaint. The next week
he gets a small parcel and a note, which reads:
Dear Sir:
Please find enclosed a
bottle of molasses. Pour the molasses over your bald head,
stick your wooden leg up your ass, and go as a caramel
apple.
Very truly yours,
Acme Costume Co.
