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 a
e-mail just > to be sure."
So he sat down and wrote:
Dear Mother:
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 a letter from his mother that read:
Dear Son:
I'm not saying that you "do" sleep with Stephanie,
and I'm not saying that you "do not" sleep with
Stephanie. But the fact remains that if she was
sleeping in her
own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by
now.
Love,
Mom
LESSON OF THE DAY... NEVER LIE TO YOUR MOTHER!
