An American couple was sitting outside a souvenir shop in the desert,
waiting for their tour bus. A local salesman approached them. After an
impassioned sales pitch yielded no results, the salesman eyed the wife
thoughtfully.
“I’ll give you 100 camels for your wife,” he offered.
The husband looked stunned, and there was an awkward silence. Finally
he replied, “She’s not for sale.”
“What took you so long to answer?” the wife cried indignantly as soon
as the salesman left.
“Well,” her husband replied, “I was trying to figure out how to get 100
camels back home.”
