WHEN I SAY I'M BROKE - I'M BROKE!
A little old lady answered a knock on the door one day; to be confronted by a well-dressed young man carrying a vacuum
/ˈvækjʊəm/ cleaner.
/ˈvækjʊəm/ cleaner.
'Good morning,' said the young man.
'If I could take a couple minutes of your time. I would like to demonstrate the very latest in high-powered vacuum cleaners..
'Go away!' said the old lady. ''I'm broke and haven't got any money!''and she proceeded to close the door.
Quick as a flash, the young man wedged his foot in the door and pushed it wide open...
''Don't be too hasty!'' /ˈheɪsti/ he said. ''Not until you have at least seen my demonstration.''
And with that, he emptied a bucket of horse manure məˈnjʊə(r)/
onto her hallway carpet.
''Now; if this vacuum cleaner does not remove all traces of this horse manure from your carpet, Madam, I will personally eat the remainder.'' /rɪˈmeɪndə(r)/
The old lady stepped back and said,''Well let me get you a fork, because Hydro One cut off my electricity /ɪˌlekˈtrɪsəti/ this morning."
