THE v.d. (very dumb) woman tourist was browsing round an antique shop. Suddenly she spied a bed which took her fancy.
"Oh," she gushed, "what a duchy bed! I think it's too, too, charming."
"It is," said the salesman, reverently. "Many famous people have slept in it. In this very bed, dear lady, have slept George Washington, Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln."
"How odd," chirped the v. d. tourist. "You'd think with all their money they could afford separate beds."
