Mistake

"Flowers"*

*There are women whose thoughtful husbands
buy them flowers for no reason. And then there's
me. One day I couldn't stand it any longer.

"Why don't you ever bring me flowers?" I asked.

"What's the point?" my husband said. "They die after about a week."

"So could you," I shot back, "but I still like having you around."

"Mistake"*

*"Is it proper for a man to profit from the mistakes of
another?" a parishioner asked his minister.

"Definitely not," was the preacher's answer.

"Are you absolutely certain?"

"Yes, my son, absolutely."

"In that case, I wonder if you would mind returning
that $250 I gave you after my wedding last year?"
