You Get What You Pay For

One day in the Garden of Eden, Adam calls out to God, "Lord, I have a problem!"

"What’s the problem, Adam?"

"Lord, I know you’ve created me and have provided this beautiful garden and all of these wonderful animals, but I’m just not happy."

"Why is that, Adam?", comes the reply from above.

"Lord, I am lonely."

"Well, Adam, in that case I have the perfect solution. I shall create a woman for you."

"What’s a ‘woman,’ Lord?"

"This woman will be the most intelligent, sensitive, caring, and beautiful creature I have ever created. She will be so intelligent that she can figure out what you want before you want it. She will be so sensitive and caring that she will know your every mood and how to make you happy. Her beauty will rival that of the heavens and earth. She will unquestioning care for your every need and desire. She will be the perfect companion for you."

"Sounds great," says Adam.

"She will be, but this is going to cost you, Adam."

"How much will this woman cost me, Lord?"

"She’ll cost you your right arm, your right leg, an eye, an ear, and your left testicle."

Adam ponders this proposition for a long time and finally says, "That’s a lot of body parts, Lord. Uh, what can I get for a rib?"

The rest, as they say, is history.
