Adam's new wife Adam had been in the garden of Eden for several years without someone to share his life with. One day, he asked God for a companion. God said to him, ""I can give you a wife that will be everything you could dream of. Humble and submissive, she will make your life nothing but pleasurable. However, to make her I'll need an arm and a leg."" Adam says, ""Aw what, that sucks! What can I get for a rib?""
