Bubba, a furniture dealer from Arkansas, decided to expand the line of furniture in his store, so he decided to go to Paris to see what he could find.
After arriving in Paris he met with some manufacturers and selected a
line that he thought would sell well back home in Arkansas. To
celebrate the new acquisition, he decided to visit a small bistro and have
a glass of wine
As he sat enjoying his wine, he noticed that the small place was quite
crowded, and that the other chair at his table was the only vacant seat in
the house.
Before long, a very beautiful young Parisian girl came to his table,
asked him something in French (which he did not understand), and motioned
toward the chair.
He invited her to sit down. He tried to speak to her in English, but
she did not speak his language so, after a couple of minutes of trying to
communicate with her, he took a napkin and drew a picture of a wine glass
and showed it to her She nodded, and he ordered a glass of wine for
her. After sitting together at the table for a while, he took another
napkin, and drew a picture of a plate with food on it, and she nodded.
They left the bistro and found a quiet cafe that featured a small
group playing romantic music. They ordered dinner, after which he took
another napkin and drew a picture of a couple dancing. She nodded, and
they got up to dance. They danced until the cafe closed and
the band was packing up.
Back at their table, the young lady took a napkin and drew a picture
of a four-poster bed.
To this day, Bubba has no idea how she figured out he was in the
furniture business. :D
