Jack decided to go skiing with his
buddy, Bob. So they loaded up Jack's minivan and headed north.
After driving for a few hours, they got caught in a terrible
blizzard. So they pulled into a nearby farm and asked the
attractive lady who answered the door if they could spend the
night.
"I realize it's terrible weather out
there and I have this huge house all to myself, but I'm
recently widowed," she explained. "I'm afraid the neighbors
will talk if I let you stay in my
house."
"Don't worry," Jack said. "We'll be
happy to sleep in the barn. And if the weather breaks, we'll
be gone at first light." The lady agreed, and the two men
found their way to the barn and settled in for the night. Come
morning, the weather had cleared, and they got on their way.
They enjoyed a great weekend of
skiing.
But about nine months later, Jack got
an unexpected letter from an attorney. It took him a few
minutes to figure it out, but he finally determined that it
was from the attorney of that attractive widow he had met on
the ski weekend.
He dropped in on his friend Bob and
asked, "Bob, do you remember that good-looking widow from the
farm we stayed at on our ski holiday up north about 9 months
ago ?"
"Yes, I do." said Bob
"Did you, er, happen to get up in the
middle of the night, go up to the house and pay her a visit?"
"Well, um, yes !," Bob said, a little
embarrassed about being found out, "I have to admit that I
did."
"And did you happen to give her my
name instead of telling her your name?"
Bob's face turned beet red and he
said, "Yeah, look, I'm sorry, buddy. I'm afraid I did." "Why
do you ask?"
"She just died and
left me everything.."
(And you thought the
ending would be different, didn't you?...
you know you smiled...now keep that smile for
the rest of the
day!
