Jest for Fun

Eric is sitting at the bar staring morosely into his beer. Tom walks in, sits down and asks him what the problem is. "Well," said Eric, "I ran afoul on one of those awkward questions women ask. Now, I'm in deep trouble at home."

"What kind of question?" asked Tom.

"My wife asked me if I would still love her when she gets old, fat and wrinkly."

"That's easy," said Tom. "You just say, 'Of course I will'."

"Yeah," said Eric. "That's what I did, except I said, 'Of course I do'."
