A businessman met a beautiful girl and agreed to spend the night with
her for $500. They did their thing, and, before he left, he told her
that he did not have any cash with him, but 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 had not been worth the price. So he had his secretary
send a check for $250 and enclose the following typed note:
Dear Madam:
Enclosed please find a check worth $250 for rent of your apartment. I
am not sending the amount agreed upon, because when I rented the place,
I was under the impression that;
#1 - It had never been occupied;
#2 - There was plenty of heat; and
#3 - It was small enough to make me feel cozy and at home.
However, I found out that:
#1 - It had been previously occupied,
#2 - There wasn't any heat, and
#3 - It was entirely too large.'
Upon receipt of the note, the girl immediately returned the check for
$250 with the following note:
Dear Sir:
#1 - I cannot understand how you could expect a beautiful apartment to
remain unoccupied indefinitely.
#2 - As for the heat, there is plenty of it, if you know how to turn it
on.
#3 - Regarding the space, the apartment is indeed of regular size, but
if you don't have enough furniture to fill it, please do not blame the
management. So,
please send the rent in full or we will be forced to
contact your present landlady.
