What Would You Do If I Died?


"Dear," said the wife. "What would you do if I died?" 

"Why, dear, I would be extremely upset," said the husband.

"Would you remarry?" asked the wife.

"No, of course not, dear" said the husband. 

"Don't you like being married?" said the wife. 

"Of course I do, dear" he said. 

"Then why wouldn't you remarry?" she asked. 

"Alright," said the husband, "I'd remarry." 

"You would?" said the wife, looking vaguely hurt. 

"Yes" said the husband. 

"Would you sleep with her in our bed?" asked the wife.

"Well yes, I suppose I would." replied the husband. 

"I see," said the wife indignantly. 
"And would you let her wear my old clothes?" 

"I suppose, if she wanted to" said the husband. 

"Really," said the wife icily. "And would you take down
the pictures of me and replace them with pictures of her?" 

"Yes. I think that would be the correct thing to do." 

"Is that so?" said the wife, leaping to her feet. 
"And I suppose you'd let her play with my golf clubs, too." 

"Of course not, dear," said the husband. "She's left-handed!"
