A man came home from work and sat in his recliner, happy
to be home and relaxing after a long and hectic day at the
office.
He called to his wife, "Honey, bring me a beer before
it starts."
Somewhat irritated but willing to fulfill her hard-working
husband's wish, she got a beer from the refrigerator and promptly
delivered it to her reclining husband.
He immediately began drinking it, and not more than fifteen
minutes later he called to his wife a second time, "Honey,
grab another beer for me before it starts."
Now truly annoyed but unwilling to get into an argument, the
wife stomped into the kitchen, snatched a beer from the refrigerator
and tossed it at her reclining husband as she walked past
him.
Once again, he immediately began guzzling the beer, and about
ten minutes later he called out to his wife a third time,
"Honey, bring me another beer will you? It's just
about to start."
Now at the end of her rope, the wife stormed through the house
into the kitchen, all the while speaking in an angry voice
about how she was not put on this earth to be a slave to the
opposite sex and that she was not going to be her husband's
own personal bartender for the entire night. She had
had a long day too, and expected some peace and quiet for
herself. She jerked open the refrigerator, grabbed a
beer, and slammed the refrigerator closed. She finished
ranting just about the time she reached her reclining husband
and threw the third beer at him.
Satisfied, the husband opened the beer, took a large gulp
of the frosty brew, and said, "Ahhh, just in time."
If you should die before
me, ask if you could bring a friend.
