A woman was walking down the street when she was confronted 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
chocolate with it instead of dinner?"
"No," I had to stop chocolate years ago, the homeless woman replied.
"Will you use it to go shopping 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 hubby 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 chocolate."
