Priceless!

Jack wakes up with a huge hangover after attending his company's ChristmasParty. Jack is not normally a drinker, but the drinks didn't taste likealcohol at all. He didn't even remember how he got home from the party. As badas he was feeling, he wondered if he did something wrong. Jack had to forcehimself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirinsnext to a glass of water on the side table. And, next to them, a single red rose!
Jack sits up and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. He looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotlessly clean.So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees ahuge black eye staring back at him in the bathroom mirror. Then he notices anote hanging on the corner of the mirror written in red with little hearts onit and a kiss mark from his wife in lipstick!: "Honey, breakfast is on thestove, I left early to go get groceries to make you your favorite dinner tonight.
I love you, darling!
Love,
Jillian"
He stumbles to the kitchen and sure enough, there is hot breakfast, steaminghot coffee and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating.Jack asks, "Son... what happened last night?" "Well, you came home after 3A.M., drunk and out of your mind. You fell over the coffee table and broke it,and then you puked in the hallway, and got that black eye when you ran intothe door." Confused he asked his son, "So, why is everything in such perfectorder, so clean, I have a rose, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me?"His son replies, "Oh THAT! Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she triedto take your pants off, you screamed, "Leave me alone, lady, I'm married!"
