A market researcher called at a house and his knock was answered by
a young woman with three small children running around her.
He asked her if she minded replying to his questions and she agreed.
He asked her if she knew his company, Cheeseborough-Ponds.
When she said no, he mentioned that among their many products was
Vaseline and she certainly knew of that product. When asked if she
used it, the answer was "Yes."
Asked how she used it, she said, "To assist sexual intercourse."
The interviewer was amazed. He said, "I always ask that question
because everyone uses our product and they always say they use it
for the child's bicycle chain, or the gate hinge; but I know that
most use it for sexual intercourse. Since you've been so frank,
could you tell me exactly how you use it?"
"Yes, we put it on the doorknob to keep the kids out.

A wealthy trader from Wall Street stopped in at the local tattoo
parlor in Key West, Florida and requested to have a one hundred
dollar bill tattooed on his penis.
The heavily tattooed tattoo artist looked at the extremely well
dressed trader with a look of complete astonishment, and said
"I've had strange requests, but this one tops the list. Why in
the hell would you want me to tattoo your wanker with the picture
of a one hundred dollar bill?"
The trader in his usual fashion looked at the burly artist and told
this account. "There are three distinct reasons I want this done and
done immediately. One, I love to play with my money. Two, when I play
with my money, I love to see it grow. Three, and this is the most
important of all, the next time my wife wants to blow a hundred bucks,
she won't have to leave home to do it."
