English Original
A young blonde woman was vacationing in the Louisiana bayou. She desperately wanted a pair of genuine alligator shoes but was unwilling to pay the high prices asked by local vendors.
Frustrated by one shopkeeper's "no-haggle" policy, she exclaimed, "Maybe I'll just go catch my own alligator to get a pair at a reasonable price!"
The shopkeeper replied, "By all means, be my guest. Maybe you'll get lucky and catch a big one!"
Determined, the woman headed for the swamps. Later that day, as the shopkeeper was driving home, he spotted her standing waist-deep in the water, shotgun in hand. Just then, he saw a huge 9-foot alligator swimming rapidly toward her.
She took aim, killed the creature, and with great effort hauled it onto the bank. Several other dead alligators lay nearby, leaving the shopkeeper amazed.
At that moment, the blonde flipped the alligator onto its back and shouted in frustration, "Dang it! This one isn't wearing any shoes either!"

一位年轻的金发女郎正在路易斯安那州的沼泽地度假。她非常想要一双真正的鳄鱼皮鞋,但又不愿支付当地商贩开出的高价。
被一位店主的“不议价”态度惹恼后,她大声说道:“也许我应该自己去抓一条鳄鱼,这样就能以合理的价格买到一双鞋了!”
店主回答:“当然可以,请便。说不定你运气好,能抓到一条大的呢!”
女郎下定决心,转身前往沼泽。当天晚些时候,店主开车回家时,看到她正站在齐腰深的水中,手里拿着一把猎枪。就在这时,他看到一条9英尺长的巨大鳄鱼正快速向她游去。
她瞄准目标,杀死了鳄鱼,并费了很大力气把它拖到岸上。附近还躺着好几条死鳄鱼,店主看得目瞪口呆。
就在这时,金发女郎把鳄鱼翻了个身,沮丧地喊道:“真见鬼!这条鳄鱼也没穿鞋!”
