A lawyer arrived home late, after a very tough day trying to get a > stay of execution for a client who was due to be hanged for murder at > midnight. His last minute plea for clemency to the governor had > failed and he was feeling worn out and depressed. > > As soon as he walked through the door at home, his wife started on him > about, 'What time of night to be getting home is this? Where have you > been? Dinner is cold and I'm not reheating it'. And on and on and > on. > > Too shattered to play his usual role in this familiar ritual, he went > and poured himself a shot of whiskey and headed off for a long hot > soak in the bathtub, pursued by the predictable sarcastic remarks as > he dragged himself up the stairs. > > While he was in the bath, the phone rang. The wife answered and was > told that her husband's client, James Wright, had been granted a stay > of execution after all. Wright would not be hanged tonight. > > Finally realizing what a terrible day he must have had, she decided to > go upstairs and give him the good news. As she opened the bathroom > door, she was greeted by the sight of her husband, bent over naked, > drying his legs and feet. > > 'They're not hanging Wright tonight,' she said. > > To which he whirled around and screamed, 'FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WOMAN, > DON'T YOU EVER STOP?'
