Hospitalized

"Hospitalized"*

*I was hospitalized for a few days, and my wife reported
that my dog really missed me. "She spends the night at
the front door, awaiting your return," she said.

"What an example of true love," I replied. "I wonder if
you'd be that concerned about me?"

"Honey," my wife answered, "if you were gone overnight,
and I didn't know where you were, you can be sure I'd
be waiting for you at the front door..."

"On The Phone"*

*The other day I needed to call home, but the only pay
phone I could find was in use. So I stood to the side and
politely waited until it was free, thinking it would only be
a couple of minutes.

Five minutes went by, and still the man was on the phone.
He was just standing there, not saying a word. Two more
minutes went by, and he still wasn't talking.

Finally, I tapped him on the shoulder and asked if I could
use the phone. I really wouldn't be long, but needed to
make an important call.

"Hold your horses," he responded, covering the receiver.
"I'm talking to my wife."
