A man and his wife were having some problems at home and
were giving each other the silent treatment.

The next week the man realized that he would need his wife
to wake him at 5.00am for an early flight to Sydney. Not
wanting to be the first to break the silence, he finally
wrote on a piece of paper, "Please wake me at 5.00am".

The next morning the man woke up, only to discover it was
9.00am, and that he had missed his flight.

Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't
awakened him when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed....

A guy is sitting quietly reading his paper when his wife sneaks
up behind him and whacks him on the head with a frying pan.

"What was that for?" he asks.

"That was for the piece of paper in your pant pocket with the name
MARYLOU on it" she replies.

"Two weeks ago when I went to the races, MARYLOU was the name of
one of the horses I wanted to be sure to bet on" he explains.

She looks satisfied and apologizes. Three days later he is again
sitting in his chair reading when she nails him with an even bigger
frying pan, knocking him out cold.
