A woman hired two men to do some yard work. The day they came, she was giving a bridge party. During the afternoon, a guest looked out the window to see one man raking and the other performing majestic leaps and spirals in the air. "Hey, look at that,? she said to her friends.

"What a wonderful gymnast,? remarked one. "I'd pay him a hundred dollars to perform for our aerobics class.? The hostess opened the window and asked the fellow raking if he thought his friend would like the job.

"Hey, Fred,? the co-worker yelled to his partner, 'do you think for a hundred dollars you could step on that rake one more time"?
