A lady with logic was walking down the street when a dirty and shabby homeless woman asked for money for supper.

(Obviously not a city woman, she said supper and not dinner)

The lady with logic took $10 out of her pocketbook (again, pocketbook not purse because of the city woman vs regular woman thing)   and asked her, "If I give you this money, will you just go and buy chocolate with it instead of supper?"

"No, I stopped eating chocolate years ago," the homeless woman said.

"Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food?" asked the lady with logic.

"No, I don't go shopping," the homeless woman said. "I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive."

"Will you spend it on a beauty salon instead of food?" asked the lady with logic.
 
"Are you nuts!" replied the homeless woman. "I haven't had my hair done in 20 years!"

"Well then," said the lady with logic, "I'm not going to give you the money.  Instead, I'm going to take you out for supper with my husband and myself tonight."

The homeless woman was shocked. "Won't your husband be furious with you for doing that?  I know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty disgusting."

The lady with logic said, "That's okay. I want him to see what I'll look like if I give up shopping, hair appointments, and chocolate."​
