Robin’s 2 Cents:
Harry was enjoying his weekend by lazing on the patio, drinking a beer and taking in the sunshine. Behind him he could hear his wife Betty in the house grumbling because the clothes dryer was broken and when she plugged in the vacuum cleaner it didn’t work either.
Trying to show some support for his wife’s frustration, Harry called out, “Don’t worry honey. You still have me.”
“Yeah,” Betty replied, grinding her teeth. “Only you don’t work either!”
