THE ITALIAN MOTHER
Mrs. Ferrara comes to visit her son Anthony for dinner... who lives
with female roommate Vicki. During the course of the meal, his mother
couldn't help but notice how pretty Anthony's roommate was. She had long
been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made
her more curious. Over the course of 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, Vicki and I are just
roommates."
About a week later, Vicki 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:
Dear Momma,
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.
Love,
Anthony
Several days later, Anthony received a response email from his Momma
which read:
Dear Son,
I 'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Vicki, 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.
Love,
Momma.
Lesson of the day ..... Don't Lie to Your Mother...especially if she is Italian!
