SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY
A couple lived near the ocean and used to walk the beach a lot. One summer
they noticed a girl who was at the beach pretty much every day. She wasn't
unusual, nor was the travel bag she carried, except for one thing; she would
approach people who were sitting on the beach, glance around furtively, then
speak to them. Generally the people would respond negatively and she would
wander off, but occasionally someone would nod and there would be a quick
exchange of money for something she carried in her bag. The couple assumed
she
was selling drugs, and debated calling the cops, but since they didn't know
for
sure they just continued to watch her.
After a couple of weeks the wife said, "Honey, have you ever noticed that
she
only approaches people with boom boxes and other electronic devices?" He
hadn't,
and said so. Then she said, "Tomorrow I want you to get a towel and our big
radio
and go lie out on the beach. Then we can find out what she's really doing."
Well, the plan went off without a hitch and the wife was almost hopping up
down with anticipation when she saw the girl talk to her husband and then
leave.
The man walked up the beach and met his wife at the road.
Well, Is she selling drugs?" she asked excitedly in a hushed voice.
"No, she's not," he said, enjoying this probably more than he should have.
"Well, What is it, then? What does she do?" his wife fairly shrieked.
The man grinned and said, "She sells batteries."
"Batteries!!??" cried the wife with astonishment.
"Yes,....." he replied calmly. "She sells C cells by the seashore."
