Silent Treatment
A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each
other the silent treatment. The next week, the man realized that he would
need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight
to Chicago. Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (AND LOSE), he
wrote on a piece of paper, "Please wake me at 5:00 AM."
The next morning the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM and that
he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife
hadn't woken him when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed.
The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up."
Spoken Words
It is estimated that the average man speaks five thousand words a day, and the average woman speaks seven thousand.
"The trouble is," complained one man, "when I come home from work, I've finished my five thousand,
but my wife hasn't started her seven thousand yet."
