Mrs. Rossi comes to visit her son Anthony for dinner. He lives with
a female roommate, Maria. During the course of the meal, his
mother couldn't help but notice how lovely Anthony’s roommate was.
Throughout the evening, while watching the two interact she started
to wonder if there was more between Anthony and his roommate than
met the eye.
Reading his mom's thoughts, Anthony volunteered, "I know what you
must be thinking, but I assure you, Maria and I are just
roommates.''
About a week later, Maria came to Anthony saying, "Ever since your
mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver sugar
bowl. You don't suppose she took it, do you?"
"Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure." So he sat
down and wrote an email:
Dear Mama,
I'm not saying that you"did" take the sugar bowl from my house; I'm
not saying that you"did not" take it. But the fact remains that it
has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Your Loving Son, Anthony A few days later, Anthony received a response email from his Mama
which read:
Dear son,
I'm not saying that you"do" sleep with Maria, and I'm not saying
that you "do not"sleep with her. But the fact remains that if she
was sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the sugar bowl by
now.
Your Loving Mama
