A store that sells new husbands has opened in New York City , where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:

You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!

So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs

She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:

Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.

'That's nice,' she thinks, 'but I want more.'

So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:

Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.

'Wow,' she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:

Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework.

'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims, 'I can hardly stand it!'

Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:

Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:

Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.


PLEASE NOTE:

To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a New Wives store just across the street.

The first floor has wives that love sex.

The second floor has wives that love sex and have money and like beer.

The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited.
I LOVE IT

Hi David, welcome aboard CF. Please note this thread is about 12 years old.

Perhaps you would be better served by starting a new thread in the Crew Positions: Wanted & Available forum. See https://www.cruisersforum.com/forums/f30/

It is also safer to ask prospective crew members to initially contact you via the CF Private Message system. This keeps your email address more secure until you have established some trust with potential crew.

Unfortunately like all other social media, CF has it's fair share of scammers and it is an ongoing moderation exercise to weed them out.

I have taken the liberty of editing your first post for your protection.

Re: Single Female Sailor Needs a Companion

I’m reminded of the joke:

Guy posts in the classifieds for a sailing companion:

Seeking sun & sea & sail companion to spend months, way out there. Must be of sober habits, must have skippers’ license and a stable income.

Please post pictures of your yacht
