A wife arrived home from a shopping trip,
and was horrified to find her husband in bed naked, with a lovely young thing.
Just as she was about to storm out of the
house, her husband stopped her and said, "Honey, before you leave, please let me
explain."
The wife stopped to listen. He continued,
"I was driving along the highway, and I saw this young girl looking very tired and
bedraggled, so I offered her a lift. She was also hungry, so I brought her home and made
her a meal from the roast beef in the refrigerator which you didn't like. She was wearing
some very worn sandals, so I gave her a pair of your shoes which you'd discarded simply
because they were out of style. She was cold, so I gave her the sweater I bought you for
your birthday - the one you never wore because the colors didn't suit you. Her slacks were
torn, so I gave her a pair of yours that were perfectly good, but much too small for you
now."
The wife seemed to have no problem with any
of this, but still needed just one question to be answered. "That's all fine and
good," she said, "but why did I find you both in our bed with no clothes
on?"
The husband replied, "Well, that's
simple... see, as she was about to leave the house, she turned to me and asked, "Is
there anything else that your wife doesn't use anymore?"
