Mr. Tung by advice of his family doctor, started jogging near his new home at Mongkok, but on each run, he happened to jog past a hooker standing on the same street corner, day after day. With some apprehension he would brace himself as he approached her for what was most certainly to follow. "500 dollars!" she would shout from the curb. "No. 50 dollars!" Mr. Tung fired back .
This ritual between Mr. Tung and the hooker continued for days. He'd run by and she'd yell, "500 dollars!" And he'd yell back, "50 dollars!"
One day however, Mrs. Tung decided that she wanted to accompany her husband on his jog.
As the jogging couple neared the problematic street corner, Mr. Tung realized the "pro" would bark her $500 offer and Mrs. Tung would wonder what he'd really been doing on all his past outings. He realized too he should have a darn good explanation.
As they jogged into the turn that would take them past the corner, Mr. Tung became even more apprehensive than usual. Sure enough, there was the hooker. Mr. Tung tried to avoid the prostitute's eyes as she watched the pair jog past.
Then, from the sidewalk, the hooker yelled, "See what you get for 50 bucks ?"
