From emberdione's journal:
Okay...
I hate forward emails but this one... well read it and see.
Jack wakes up at home with a huge hangover he can't believe. He
forces himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a
couple of aspirins next to a glass of water on the side table. And,
next to them, a single red rose! Jack sits up and sees his clothing
in front of him, all clean and pressed. Jack looks around the room
and sees that it is in perfect order. Spotlessly clean. So is the
rest of the house. He takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees a
huge black eye staring back at him
in the bathroom mirror, and notices a note on the table: "Honey,
breakfast
is on the stove, I left early to go shopping--Love you!" He stumbles
to the kitchen and sure enough, there is a hot breakfast and the
morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating. Jack asks,
"Son...what happened last night?" "Well, you came home after 3 A.M.,
drunk and out of your mind. You broke some furniture, puked in the
hallway, and got that black eye when you
ran into the door." "So, why is everything in such perfect order, so
clean,
I have a rose, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me?" His
son replies, "Oh THAT!... Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when
she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, 'Leave me alone,
lady, I'm married!'"
