A lady is giving a party for her granddaughter, and has gone all
out---caterer, band, and a hired clown. Just before the party starts,
two guys show up looking for a handout. Feeling sorry for them,
the woman tells them that they can get a meal if they will chop
some firewood. Gratefully, they head to the rear of the house.
Guests arrive, and all is going well with the children having a
wonderful time. But the clown has not shown up, and finally,
the clown calls to report that he is stuck in traffic, and will
probably not make the party at all. The woman is very
disappointed and unsuccessfully tries to entertain the children
herself.
She happens to look out the window and sees one of the guys
doing cartwheels across the lawn. She watches in awe as he
swings from tree branches, does midair flips, and leaps high in
the air.
She calls the other guy over and says, "What your friend is
doing is absolutely marvelous. I've never seen such a thing.
Do you think your friend would consider repeating this
performance for the children at the party? I would pay him $50!"
"Well...," he responds, "I dunno...let me ask him... HEY, WILLIE...
FOR $50 WOULD YOU CHOP OFF ANOTHER TOE?"

Good one.
