Bertha was a very pretty girl. Quite a lot of young men wanted to marry her, but she was not satisfied with any of them.

One day, a young man asked her to become his wife. She answered, "No, John, I won't marry you.

I want to marry a man who is famous, who can play music, who can tell interesting stories, who does not smoke or drink , who stays at home in the evenings and who stops talking when I'm tired of listening.

" The young man got up, took his coat and went to the door, but before he left the house, he turned and said to Bertha, "It isn't a man you're looking for. It's a television set."
