She asked, "What'd you do today?" He said, "Nothing." She said, "You couldn't have done 'nothing'; you must've done something. Did you look for a job?" He said, "Yes, I did. I looked out the window." She said, "Don't be funny. You need a job." He said, "Tell me something I don't know. I walked down to the corner and hung a sign around my neck. It said, 'Will work for chocolate ice cream.' Nobody hired me." She said, "Of course not. What a stupid sign!" He said, "You're right. Tomorrow I'll change it to 'vanilla'; that's America's favorite flavor." She said, "So, another wasted day. All you did was get a day older. That was your only accomplishment." He said, "Better I didn't get a day older. That would really be an accomplishment. If I could do that and bottle it, I wouldn't need to look for a job."
