A wealthy woman was giving a garden party, and several well-to-do guests attended. As the party ensued, two gardeners were out on the back lawn working. One of the guests was watching the gardeners do their thing, and while one gardener was busy weeding, the other jumped up and made graceful swirling dance movements.

Taken by his grace, the guest remarked to the host, "That man is such a talented dancer that I'd pay him a hundred pounds to demonstrate his dancing before my aerobics class!"

When the host asked the first gardener about such an arrangement, he yelled, "Hey, Fred! Do you think for a hundred pounds you could step on that rake again?"
