Robin’s 2¢:
A man had just finished reading the book “Man of the House” while riding the commuter train home from work.
When he reached home, he stormed into the house and walked directly up to his wife. Pointing his finger in her face, he said, “From now on, I want you to know that I am the man of this house and my word is law!
“You are to prepare me a gourmet meal tonight, and when I’m finished eating my meal, I expect a sumptuous dessert afterward. Then, after dinner, you’re going to draw my bath so I can relax.
“And when I’m finished with my bath, guess who’s going to dress me and comb my hair?”
His wife thought for a moment and responded, “The funeral director is my guess.”
