Two guys stopped by the lumber yard to buy some wood, and the blond one got out and went in.
“I’d like to buy some boards.”
“What thickness?” the clerk asked
“Um, I think I need them four by four.”
“You sure? You probably mean two by four,” she said.
“Just a minute, I’ll check,” he said. After about 15 minutes he came back. “Yep, you’re right!” “Okay,” said the lady, “how long do you need them?”
“We’ll need them for a pretty long time. We’re using them to build a house.”

Sorry to all blond(e) men.
