Half a Head of Lettuce

A man walked into a supermarket, asking to buy half a
head of lettuce. The stock boy told him that they only
sold whole heads of lettuce, but the man was insistent:
he did not need a whole head, only a half head. The boy
said he would go ask his manager about the matter.

The boy walked into the back room and said, "There's
some jerk out there who wants to buy only a half a head
of lettuce." As he finished speaking, he turned around
to find the man standing right behind him, so he added,
"--and this gentleman wants to buy the other half."

The manager okayed the deal and the man went on his
way. Afterward, the manager said "You almost got
yourself in a lot of trouble earlier, but I must say I
was impressed with the way you got yourself out of it.
You think on your feet and we like that around here.
Where are you from, son?"

"Texas, sir".

"Oh really? Why did you leave Texas?" Asked the
manager.

The boy said, "Nothing but whores and ball players down
there."

"Hey!" Said the manager, "My wife is from Texas!!"

"No kidding!" Says the boy. "What team did she play
for?"
