A woman goes into Bass  Pro Shop to buy a rod and reel for her grandson's  birthday. She doesn't know  which one to get so she just grabs one and goes  over to the  counter.

A Bass Pro Shop  associate is standing there wearing dark shades. She says,  'Excuse me, sir.  Can you tell me anything about this rod and reel?'

He says, 'Ma'am, I'm completely blind; but if you'll drop it on  the counter,  I can tell you everything from the sound it  makes.'

She doesn't believe him but drops it  on the counter anyway.

He says, 'That's a six-foot Shakespeare graphite  rod with a Zebco 404 reel  and 10-LB. test line. It's a good all around  combination and it's on sale  this week for only $20.00.

She says, 'It's amazing that you can tell all that just by the  sound of it  dropping on the counter. I'll take it!' As she opens her purse,  her credit card drops on the floor.

'Oh,  that sounds like a Master Card,' he says.

She bends down to pick it up  and accidentally farts. At first she is really  embarrassed, but then realizes  there is no way the blind clerk could tell it was she who tooted. Being  blind, he wouldn't know that she was the only person  around.

The man rings up the sale and says,  'That'll be $34.50 please.'

The woman is totally confused by this and  asks, 'Didn't you tell me the rod and reel were on sale for $20.00? How did  you get $34.50?'

He replies, 'Yes, Ma'am. The  rod and reel is $20.00, but the Duck Call is $11.00 and the Bear Repellent is $3.50
