A salesman was lying in his motel room, flicking through the Gideon Bible. Suddenly he had had a flash of inspiration and walked along to reception, where the girl on the desk was a pretty little redhead. He stopped and talked with her for a while. "What time do you finish?" he asked eventually. "Nine o'clock," she replied. "How about coming round to my room after work for a few drinks?" "Well, I'd like to, but I don't know whether I should." "It'll be okay. It says so in the Bible." "Oh, well all right then. See you at nine." Just after nine o'clock, she knocked on the door of his room. He let her in, sat her on the bed and reached into the minibar for some drinks. "How about a brandy and dry?" he suggested. "I'd like to," she said, "but I'm not sure if I should." "It'll be fine," he insisted. "It says so in the Bible." "Well, in that case, all right." They had a few drinks, and then he suggested that they get into bed for a cuddle. "I'd like to," she said, "but I'm not sure if it would be okay." "Of course it would. It says so in the Bible." So they climbed into bed, and one thing led to another. Afterwards, as she got dressed, she asked him: "Exactly whereabouts in the Bible does it say that all this is okay?" He reached for the Gideon Bible beside the bed, and opened the front cover where someone had written: "The redhead on the reception desk is a sure thing."
