English Original
A notorious cheapskate was explaining to a friend how to find his apartment.
He said, "Come up to 5M and ring the doorbell with your elbow. When the door opens, push it with your foot."
"Why use my elbow and foot?" the friend asked.
"Well, gosh," was the reply. "You're not coming empty-handed, are you?"
