Bubba, a Redneck furniture dealer from College Station , decided to
expand the line of furniture in his store, so he decided to go to Paris
to see what he could find. After arriving in Paris he met with some
manufacturers and selected a line that he thought would sell well back
home in College Station .
To celebrate the new acquisition, he decided to visit a small bistro and
have a glass of wine. As he sat enjoying his wine, he noticed that the
small place was quite crowded, and that the other chair at his table was
the only vacant seat in the house. Before long, a very beautiful young
Parisian girl came to his table, asked him something in French (which he
did not understand), and motioned toward the chair. He invited her to sit
down.
He tried to speak to her in English, but she did not speak his language
so, after a couple of minutes of trying to communicate with her. He took
a napkin and drew a picture of a wine glass and showed it to her. She
nodded, and he ordered a glass of wine for her. After sitting together at
the table for a while, he took another napkin, and drew a picture of a
plate with food on it, and she nodded.
They left the bistro and found a quiet cafe that featured a small group
playing romantic music. They ordered dinner, after which he took another
napkin and drew a picture of a couple dancing. She nodded, and they got
up to dance. They danced until the cafe closed and the band was packing
up.
Back at their table, the young lady took a napkin and drew a picture of a
four-poster bed. To this day, Bubba has no idea how she figured out he
was in the furniture business.
