A woman was lying in bed with her lover when she heard her husband opening the front door. “Quick,” she said, “go stand in the corner.” She smeared baby oil all over him and then sprinkled talcum powder on him. “Don’t move until I tell you,” she instructed. “Pretend you’re a statue.” “What’s this?” the husband asked as he entered the room. “Oh, it’s a statue,” she answered. “The Smiths bought one and I liked it so much that I got one for us too.” Nothing more was said, not even when they went to bed. Around 2 a.m., the husband got up, went to the kitchen and came back with a sandwich and a beer.
“Here, have this,” he said as he handed the sandwich and beer to the statue. Then he said to the statue, “I stood like that for two days at the Smiths’ house and nobody offered me anything!!”
