Seeing Clearer Now A married man left work early one Friday afternoon. instead of going home, however, he squandered the weekend (and his paycheck) partying with the boys. When he finally returned home on Sunday night, he ran into a barrage of epithets from his furious wife. After a couple of hours of nagging and berating, his wife asked, "How would you like it if you didn't see me for a couple of days!?!" "That would suit me just fine!!" Monday went by, and the man didn't see his wife. Tuesday and Wednesday came and went with the same result. Come Thursday, the swelling went down a bit and he could see her a little, just out of the corner of his left eye! Tuesday and Wednesday came and went with the same result.

Who's the Boss? A henpecked husband was advised by a psychiatrist to assert himself more. "You don't have to let your wife bully you," he said, "now, go home and show her you're the boss." The husband decided to take the doctor's advice. He went home, slammed the door, shook his fist in his wife's face, and growled, "From now on you're taking orders from me! I want my supper right now, and when you get it on the table, go upstairs and lay out my clothes. Tonight I am going out with the boys. You are going to stay at home where you belong. Another thing, you know who is going to tie my bow tie?" "I most certainly do...." said his wife, smiling sweetly. "....The undertaker."
