The housewife answered a knock on the door
and found
a total stranger standing on the doorstep.
‚Excuse me
for disturbing you, ma’am,‘ he said politely, ‚ but I
pass your
house every morning on my way to work, and I’ve noticed that
every
day you appear to be hitting your son on the head with a loaf of
bread!‘
‚That’s right.‘
‚Every day you wallop him on the head
with a loaf of bread, and yet
this morning you were hitting him
with a chocolate cake….?‘
‚Well, today is his birthday!‘
