“Honey, I have been asked to fly to Canada with my boss and several of his friends for fishing. We'll be gone for a long weekend. This is a good opportunity for me to get that promotion I've been wanting, so could you please pack enough clothes for a 3-day weekend? ....
And also, would you get out my rod and tackle box from the attic?
We're leaving at 4:30 pm from the office and I will swing by the house to pick my things up..
Oh! And please pack my new navy blue silk pajamas.."
The wife thinks this sounds a bit odd, but, being the good wife, she does exactly what her husband asks.
Following the long weekend, he comes home a little tired, but, otherwise, looking good. The wife welcomes him home and asks if he caught many fish.
He says, 'Yes!
Lots of Walleyes, some Bass, and a few Pike. '
He says, "But why didn't you pack my new blue silk pajamas like I asked you to do?"
