Seems like Adam was looking kinda lonely sitting on the river bank one day when the Lord walks by. 'Adam", he says, "You're looking pretty blue, whatsa matter"?
"Well, Lord, it's not that I don't like your company or anything like that. Cuz really, you're the best ever. But I don't have a companion like all the other creatures do," Adam says in a most heartbreaking tone.
The Lord loved Adam dearly and wanted to give him what he knew was missing in his life. "Adam, I am going to make you a companion."
"Okay, Lord that would be great!", Adam replied, and then asked excitedly, "and what would this companion be like?"
The Lord really wanted to do it up right for Adam, so he says, "She will be your constant, heart-to-heart companion. She will have your babies and take care of them while your are out working. She will meet you at the door with a smile every night when you come in from a hard day.
She will cook all of your meals and keep your house clean and tidy. She will never get a headache and she will be everything you could ever want, soft, tender and supportive all the time. She will be called 'woman'."
Adam's eyes light up and then another thought hits him. "And what will this "woman" cost me," he says.
"An arm and a leg", was the Lord's reply.
Adam carefully thought about this for quite a while. Finally he asks in a hesitant voice, "and what can I get for a rib?"
