The Homeless Woman

   A woman was walking down the street when she was
   accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking
   homeless woman who asked her for a couple of dollars
   for dinner.

   The woman took out her bill fold, extracted ten
   dollars and asked, "If I give you this money, will
   you buy some wine with it instead of dinner?"

   "NoI had to stop drinking years ago," the homeless
   woman replied.

   "Will you use it to go shopping for baubles instead of buying
   food?" the woman asked.

   "No, I don't waste time shopping," the homeless
   woman said. "I need to spend all my time trying to
   stay alive"

   "Will you spend this on a beauty salon instead of
   food?" the woman asked.

   "Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless woman. "I
   haven't had my hair done in 20 years!"

   "Well," said the woman, "I'm not going to give you
   the money.

   Instead, I'm going to take you out for dinner with
   my hubby and myself tonight.

   The homeless Woman was astounded. "Won't your
   husband be furious with you for doing that?
   I know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty
   disgusting."

   The woman replied, "That's okay. It's important for
   him to see what a woman looks like after she has
   given up shopping, hair appointments and wine."
