A young man called Paul invited his mother for dinner, during the
course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how handsome Paul's
flatmate, Simon, was. She had long been suspicious of a relationship
between the two, and this 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 Paul and his flatmate than met the eye. Reading his mums
thoughts, Paul volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure
you, Simon & I are just flatmates".
About a week later, Simon came to Paul saying, "Ever since your
Mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the frying pan, you don't
suppose she took it do you?" "Well I doubt it, but I'll email her just to be
sure" said Paul. So he sat down and wrote:
DEAR MOTHER, I'M NOT SAYING THAT YOU "DID" TAKE THE FRYING PAN
FROM MY HOUSE, I'M NOT SAYING THAT YOU "DID NOT" TAKE THE FRYING PAN, BUT
THE FACT REMAINS THAT IT HAS BEEN MISSING EVER SINCE YOU WERE HERE FOR
DINNER. LOVE PAUL
Several days later, Paul received an email from his mother which
read:
DEAR SON, I'M NOT SAYING THAT YOU "DO" SLEEP WITH SIMON, AND I'M
NOT SAYING THAT YOU "DO NOT" SLEEP WITH SIMON, BUT THE FACT REMAINS THAT IF
HE WAS SLEEPING IN HIS OWN BED, HE WOULD HAVE FOUND THE FRYING PAN BY
NOW. LOVE MUM
Lesson of the day, NEVER LIE TO YOUR MOTHER.
