You don't even have to be a mother to enjoy this one...
Brian
Hester invited his mother over for dinner. During the course of the meal,
Brian's mother couldn't help but keep noticing how beautiful Brian's roommate,
Stephanie, was. Mrs. Hester had long been suspicious of a relationship between
Brian and Stephanie, and this had only made her more curious. Over the course of
the evening, while watching the two react, Mrs. Hester started to wonder if
there was more between Brian and Stephanie than met the eye. Reading his mom's
thoughts, Brian volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you
Stephanie and I are just roommates." About a week later, Stephanie came to Brian
saying, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the
beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" Brian
said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll send her an e-mail just to be
sure." So he sat down and wrote:
Dear Mom:
I'm not
saying that you "did" take the gravy ladle from the house, I'm not saying that
you "did not" take the gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been
missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Love, Brian
Several
days later, Brian received an email back from his mother that read:
Dear
Son:
I'm not saying that you "do" sleep with Stephanie, I'm not saying
that you "do not" sleep with Stephanie. But the fact remains that if Stephanie
was sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by
now.
