LESSON OF THE DAY... NEVER LIE TO YOUR MOTHER
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 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
