SOMETHING'S ROTTEN, AND THIS AIN'T DENMARK


Real conversation between me and partially-deaf sister:

ME:  Ali, I threw out all the bad food in your fridge like the milk, the eggs.

ALI:  (Blank stare)

ME:  (yelling) Your fridge! I cleaned it out!

ALI:  (Blank stare)

ME:  I THREW OUT YOUR MOLDY MILK AND EGGS AND MEAT AND CHEESE!!!!  YOU HAD CUCUMBERS ROTTING IN YOUR FRIDGE!!!!

ALI:  (indignant)  Okay, I will!



Reminded me of the joke with the three old ladies on an outing:

LADY #1:  Driver, where are we going?

DRIVER:  Wellesley.

LADY #2:  Really?  I thought it was Thursday.

LADY #3:  So am I.  Let's stop and have a drink!
