One day, an older woman was walking along the street, coming home
from the supermarket.
Her bag of groceries was especially heavy that day, and as she passed
Nathan Hale's Used Cars, she got an idea that she could drive herself
to the store and save a lot of shoe leather, time and aching muscles.
She walks into the car dealership and, as it just so happens, gets the
owner himself.
He asks her what kind of car she wants and she replies, "Well, Sonny,
I can't remember the name exactly, but it has something to do with
hate or anger."
The owner replies, "Well, let's see... Oh yes, you want a Plymouth Fury!
We have a couple on the lot. What color do you prefer?"
The lady has some trouble explaining the exact color to him, so she reaches
into her shopping bag, takes out an ear of corn, strips down the shucks and
says, "I want this color, Sonny."
To which Nathan replies, "Ma'am I'm sorry, but we don't have any in this
color. Could I show you a nice blue one?"
"No, Sonny, I want this color," showing him the corn again.
"But ma'am, they didn't make that color! Maybe a cherry red one would
suit you?" says the owner, obviously worried about losing a sale.
By this time, the lady gets mad, and starts throwing things at the owner,
thereby chasing him out of the office and into the lot.
One of the salesmen, coming into the office from the back door, notices
the disruption and asks the secretary what the woman was so upset about.
The secretary replies, "Apparently, Hale hath no Fury like the woman's corn!"
