That Is the One

Man was walking around the library

having a really good look

He had looked everywhere

but still couldn't find that book

He ventured to the counter

to ask the good looking assistant

At first he wasn't noticed

she seemed quite distant

 

She was on the computer

and on some paper she wrote

As the man got a little closer

he started clearing his throat

"May I help you?" she asked 

the very nervous looking man

"Yes" he replied with a twitch

sweating from the palm of his hand

 

He said "I'd appreciate it a lot

if you kept this just between us

I am looking for a book called

Help For Men With A Small *****" 

Librarian looked up and answered

"That isn't in yet I'm afraid hun"

Then gave a look of dismay

as he said "Yes, that is the one"
