It was raining heavily and the motorist had car trouble on a lonely country road. Anxious to find shelter for the night, he walked over to a farm house and knocked on the front door.
No one responded. He could feel the water from the roof running down the back of his neck as he stood on the porch.
The next time he knocked louder, but still no answer. By now he was soaked to the skin. Desperately he pounded on the door. At last the head of a man appeared out of an upstairs window.
"What do you want?" he asked gruffly. "My car broke down," said the traveller "and I want to know if I can stay here for the night".
"Sure," replied the man. "If you want to stay there all night, it's okay with me."
