Never lie to your mother

HAVING MOM OVER FOR DINNER

You don’t even have to be a mother to enjoy this one…

Brian invited his mother over for dinner. During the course of the meal,

Brian’s mother couldn’t help but notice how beautiful Brian’s
roommate,
Jennifer, was. Brian’s Mom had long been suspicious of the platonic
relationship between Brian and Jennifer, and this 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 between Brian and Jennifer 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, ‘Ever since your
mother came to dinner, I’ve been un able to find the beautiful silver
gravy ladle. You don’t suppose she took it, do you?’

Brian said, ‘Well, I doubt it, but I’ll send her an e-mail just to be
sure. So he sat down and wrote:

__________________________________________________________

Dear Mom,

I’m not saying that you ‘did’ take the gravy ladle from the house,
I’m
not saying that you ‘did not’ 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 ‘do not’ sleep with Jennifer. But the fact remains that if Jennifer
is still sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the g r avy ladle
by now.

Love, Mom
