Apartment for Rent

    A businessman meets a beautiful girl and agrees to spend the
    night with her for $500. So they do. Before he leaves, he tells
    her that he does not have any cash with him, but he will have his
    secretary write a check and mail it to her, calling the payment
    'RENT FOR APARTMENT.'

    On the way to the office he regrets what he has done,
    realizing
    that the whole event was not worth the price. So he has his
    secretary send a check for $250 and enclosed the following
    typed note:


    Dear Madam:

    Enclosed you will find a check in the amount of $250 for rent
    of your apartment. I am not sending the amount agreed upon,
    because when I rented the apartment, I was under the
    impression that;

    1) it had never been occupied

    2) that there was plenty of heat;

    3) that it was small enough to make me feel cozy and at home.

    However, I found out that it had been previously occupied,
    that
    there wasn't any heat, and that it was entirely too large.

    Upon receipt of the note, the girl immediately returned the
    check for $250 with the following note:

    Dear sir,
    First of all, I cannot understand how you expect a beautiful
    apartment to remain unoccupied indefinitely. As for the heat,
    there is plenty of it, if you know how to turn it on. Regarding

    the space, the apartment is indeed of regular size, but if you
    don't have enough furniture to fill it, please don't blame the
    landlady.

    Send the rent in full or we will be forced to contact your
    present landlady.
