Ask a stupid question...

                                       ...get a smart answer!

I have to share what happened a couple of summers ago. I went out to start the lawnmower. I grabbed the handle on the end of the string and pulled; it broke, handle, string, and all. I walked into the house trailing the string. My husband looks at me  and says-

 "Did it break?"

I couldn't resist. I answered-

 "Nope, I took it for a walk and it got off the leash!"

I laughed so hard after I read that, my husband wanted to know what was so funny. When I read it to him - he didn't think it was that funny. I guess he would have asked the same question.

Dana- maybe it's the difference between a man's mind and a woman's mind, LOL!
