I don't understand this joke that was in Readers Digest. Could you help me?!
Question: "Our neighbor had hired a great lawn-care guy who was a man of few words. When she asked him for his name, he replied, 'I go by Manitiuls.'
"When it came time to pay him, she said, 'You have an unusual name. Could you spell it out for me?'
"He looked a little confused but slowly said, 'A.J.'"
That was the joke, straight from Readers Digest. ... Uh, HELP?!

I didn't get it either until I read the other responses. Readers digest are really scraping the bottom of the barrel for jokes.
Ha, yep I got it & not by seeing others answers either! But they are right - Manitiuls - 'my initials'.
Sometimes the 'easiest' are the most difficult to understand.
