They always know

My sister sends me tons of stuff on the internet. Some of it is good, some I ignore. But I got this from her the other day and I got a kick out of it. I'm sure some of you have seen it before but I hope you enjoy anyway.

Brian invited his mother over for dinner. During the course of the meal, she couldn't help but notice how beautiful Brian's roommate, Jennifer, was. Brian's Mom had long been suspicious of Brian's claim of a purely platonic relationship between him and Jennifer. And this dinner had only made her more curious.

Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more to Brian and Jennifer relationship than met the eye.

Reading his mom's thoughts, Brian volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you Jennifer and I are just roommates."

About a week later, Jennifer came to Brian saying, "I know you're going to think I'm nuts but ever since your mother came to dinner I haven't been able to find that beautiful silver gravy ladle. I know we had it that night. Do you think there is any way she would have taken it?"

Brian said, "Well, I don't really see mom as a cat burglar , but I'll send her an e-mail just to be sure."

Trying to keep it light he wrote -

Dear Mom,

I'm not saying that you did take the gravy ladle from the house, I'm not saying that you didn't 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 an email back from his mother that read:


Dear Son,

I'm not saying that you do sleep with Jennifer, I'm not saying that you don't sleep with Jennifer. But the fact remains that if Jennifer was sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now.

Love, Mom



LESSON OF THE DAY - NEVER LIE TO YOUR MOTHER
