An American guy was enjoying his first night in Rome drinking cappuccino at a pavement cafe when a pretty girl sat beside him.
"Hello," he said. "Do you speak English?"
"Only a little." she answered.
"How much?" he asked.
"Fifty dollars." she replied.
And the following was first told to me by Hum Sup Guy:
Man: Would you sleep with me for £1,000,000?
Woman: Yes.
Man: Would you sleep with me for £100?
Woman: How dare you! What sort of woman do think I am?
Man: We've decided what sort of woman you are, now we're just haggling about the price.
