When you buy anything secondhand, make sure you have everything to make it go.
A small boy was pushing a gasoline-powered lawn mower down the street with a "For Sale" sign on it. As he passed one house, a man stopped him and asked if the mower would run. The boy told him it would. The man bought it.
A while later, the boy was walking past the man's house and saw him pulling repeatedly on the starting rope with no success.
"I thought you told me this mower would run," the man said.
"It will, but you have to use some cusswords to make it start," the boy said.
"Son, I'm a preacher. I don't know any cusswords."
"Well," said the boy, "you keep pulling on that starter rope, and some will come to you."
