A man in New Orleans walked into the produce section of his local supermarket and asked to buy half a head of cabbage.\n
The boy working in that department told him that they only sold whole heads of cabbage.\n
The man was insistent that the boy ask the manager about the matter.\n
Walking into the back room, the boy said to the manager, \u201cSome old stooge outside wants to buy half a head of cabbage.\u201d\n
As he finished his sentence, he turned around to find that the man had followed and was standing right behind him, so the boy quickly added, \u201c\u2026 and this gentleman kindly offered to buy the other half.\u201d\n
The manager approved the deal and the man went on his way.\n
Later, the manager said to the boy, \u201cI was impressed with the way you got yourself out of that situation earlier, we like people who can think on their feet here, where are you from son?\u201d\n
\u201cCanada, sir.\u201d the boy replied.\n
\u201cWhy did you leave Canada?\u201d the manager asked.\n
The boy said, \u201cSir, there\u2019s nothing but pr*stitutes and ice hockey players there.\u201d\n
\u201cIs that right?\u201d demanded the Manager. \u201cMy wife is from Canada!!\u201d\n
\u201cReally?\u201d replied the boy.\n
\u201cWho did she play for?\u201d\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
