Some guys in a pickup truck drove into a lumberyard.
One of them walked into the office and said, "We need some
four-by-twos."

"You mean two-by-fours, don't you?" asked the clerk.
The fellow replied, "Um, I'll have to check with the rest
of the boys."  He went out to his truck and within a few
minutes returned to the clerk stating, "Yep, I meant
two-by-fours."

"Alright," replied the clerk. "How long do you need them?"
He stood there scratching his head while pondering this
question and replied, "Well, um, a long time.  We're gonna
build a house."
