The Broken Mower

When our lawn mower broke and would no longer run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed. But I always had something else to take care of first - the truck, the car, playing golf - always something more important to me.

When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house. I was gone only a minute and, when I came out again, I handed her a toothbrush and said, ” When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the driveway…”

The doctors say I’ll walk again, but I’ll always have a limp.

H.T to Mike!

Heh! Good one!

Good one. I heard it before but with a moral to the story, something like in every relationship there is the one who is always right and the other one is the husband. Anyway, it made me laugh again.

Actually, it came to me with the "moral" addendum but it didn't really seem, at least to me, to fit so I cut it. Besides, wifey wouldn't have liked it ;-)

Women have no sense of humor!

Very funny. Something like that happened to me once. She left. It was painful for a while but it was the best thing that ever happened to me.
