Alicia was married to a male chauvinist. They both worked full time, but he never did anything around the house and certainly not any housework. That, he declared, was woman`s work. But one evening Alicia arrived home from work to find the children bathed, a load of wash in the washing machine and another in the dryer, dinner on the stove and a beautifully set table, complete with flowers. She was astonished, and she immediately wanted to know what was going on. It turned out that Tom, her husband, had read a magazine article that suggested working wives would be more romantically inclined if they weren`t so tired from having to do all the housework in addition to holding down a full-time job. The next day, she couldn`t wait to tell her friends in the office. "How did it work out?" they asked. "Well, it was a great dinner," Alicia said. "Tom even cleaned up, helped the kids with their homework, folded the laundry and put everything away." "But what about afterward?" her friends wanted to know. "It didn`t work out," Alicia said. "Tom was too tired." |

Morris whispered, "I wasn't lost.....I was just too tired to walk home." |
