\u201cGood morning,\u201d said the young man. \u201cIf I could take a couple minutes of your time, I\u2019d like to demonstrate the very latest in high-powered vacuum cleaners.\u201d\n \u201dGo away!\u201d said the old lady.\n \u201dI haven\u2019t got any money!\u201d and she proceeded to close the door.\n Quick as a flash, the young man wedged his foot in and pushed the door wide open.\n \u201dDon\u2019t be too hasty! Not until you have at least seen my demonstration.\u201d\n With that, he emptied a bucket of horse manure onto her hallway carpet and bragged,\n \u201cNow if this vacuum cleaner does not remove all traces of this horse manure from your carpet, Madam, I will eat every bit of the remainder.\u201d\n The old lady stepped back and said, \u201cWell, let me get you a fork, buster, \u2019cause they cut off my electricity this morning.\u201d\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A Little Old Lady Answered A Knock On The Door A little old lady answered a knock on the door one day and was confronted by a well-dressed young man carrying a vacuum cleaner. \u201cGood morning,\u201d said the young man. \u201cIf I could take a couple minutes of your time, I\u2019d like to demonstrate the\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":66222,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"A Little Old Lady Answered A Knock On The Door","_seopress_robots_index":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[676],"tags":[384],"class_list":{"0":"post-66219","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-jokes","8":"tag-jokes"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/thefinejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/26-1.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thefinejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66219","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thefinejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thefinejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thefinejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thefinejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=66219"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/thefinejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66219\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thefinejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/66222"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thefinejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=66219"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thefinejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=66219"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thefinejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=66219"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
