My Aunt Dot She just turned 94 and is in assisted living, and almost daily she broadcasts stuff like this to everyone she has email addresses for![More:]

The original version she sent out had risque pics also, which I am sparing all of you. I mean it's cute but where does she find all of it?

A Home Depot Story!

Charlie was installing a new door and found that one of the hinges was missing.

He asked his wife Mary if she would go to Home Depot and pick up a hinge.

Mary agreed to go. While she was waiting for the manager to finish serving a customer,

her eye caught a beautiful bathroom faucet.

When the manager was finished, Mary asked him, "How much is that faucet?"

The manager replied, "That's a gold plated faucet and the price is $500.00.

Mary exclaimed, "My goodness, that is a very expensive faucet. It's certainly out of my price bracket."

She then proceeded to describe the hinge that Charlie had sent her to buy.

The manager said that he had them in stock and went into the storeroom to get one.

From the storeroom the manager yelled. "Ma'am, do you wanna screw for the hinge?"

Mary paused for a moment and then shouted back, "No, but I will for the faucet."

This is why you can't send a woman to Home Depot!

Forwarded from other older friends, I guess.

Forwarding corny, sappy e-mails that affirm old-fashioned values, complain about how modern music is noise, how kids don't respect anything, and need to get off your lawn is what old people do on the Internet.

She must belong to the same mailing list as my in-laws lol.

But seriously, it's wonderful that a 94 year old woman is using the internet at all, so she should get a free pass on silly forwards.

Besides, if you take out the "This is why you can't send a woman to Home Depot!" part, I love the joke :)
