A man phones his wife and says, “Honey, I’ve been invited to go on a week-long fishing trip out of town with my boss. It could really help me get a promotion. Can you pack enough clothes for the week, get my rod and tackle box ready, and please don’t forget to include my new blue silk pajamas?”
The wife feels something is off, but she does everything he asks.
A week later, the husband comes home looking tired but very satisfied. Immediately, the wife asks how the trip went — did he have fun, did he catch anything?
“Oh, tons!” he says proudly. “Lots of salmon, bluegill, even a couple of swordfish.” Then, with a confused look, he adds, “But why didn’t you pack my blue silk pajamas?”
The wife smirks.
“I did. They were in your fishing box.”
A Doctor and a Lawyer at a Party
A doctor and a lawyer are chatting at a party, hoping to relax. But every few minutes, someone interrupts the doctor:
“Can you look at this rash?”
“My back is k.i.l.l.i.n.g me…”
“Does this mole look strange to you?”
After an hour of free checkups, the doctor sighs and asks the lawyer, “How do you deal with people constantly asking you for free legal advice?”
The lawyer grins.
“Easy. I give them the advice… then I send them a bill.”
The doctor stares.
“You’re kidding.”
“Not at all.”
Inspired — and a little vengeful — the doctor decides to try it. The next day, he writes bills for everyone who bothered him at the party.
But when he walks to the mailbox to send them, he finds something already inside.
A bill.
From the lawyer.
