A woman was in bed with her lover when she heard
her husband opening
the
front door.
"Hurry!" she said, "stand in the corner." She
quickly rubbed baby oil
all
over him and then she dusted him with talcum
powder. "Don't move
until I
tell you to," she whispered. "Just pretend you're a
statue."

"What's this, honey?" the husband enquired as he
entered the room.
"Oh, its just a statue," she replied nonchalantly.
"The Smiths bought
one
for their bedroom. I liked it so much, I got one
for us too."

No more was said about the statue, not even later
that night when
they went
to sleep.
Around two in the morning the husband got out of
bed, went to the
kitchen
and returned a while later with a sandwich and a
glass of
milk. "Here," he
said to the "statue", "eat something. I stood like
an idiot at the
Smiths
for three days and nobody offered me as much as a
glass of water."
