| Upon arriving home, a husband was met at the door by his sobbing wife.
Tearfully she explained ..
"It's the pharmacist.
He insulted me terribly this morning on the phone."
Immediately, the husband drove downtown to confront the druggist and
demand an apology.
Before he could say more than a word or two, the druggist told him,
"Now, just a minute ... listen to my side of the story."
"This morning the alarm failed to go off,
so I was late getting up.
I went without breakfast and hurried out to the car,
only to realize that I locked the house with both house and car keys
inside.
I had to break a window to get my keys.
In doing so I tore my suit and had to go upstairs and change.
Then, driving a little too fast, I got a speeding ticket.
When I was about three blocks from the store,
I got a flat tire.
Being late, my usual parking place had been taken
and I had to drive around to find another one.
When I finally got to the store, there were a bunch of people
impatiently waiting for me to open up.
I got the store opened and started waiting on these people and all the
time the dang phone was ringing off the hook."
He continued, "Then I had to break a roll of nickels against the cash
register drawer to make change, and they spilled all over the floor. I got
down on my hands and knees to pick up the nickels.
The phone was still ringing.
When I came up, I cracked my head on the open cash drawer which made
me stagger back against a showcase with a bunch of perfume bottles on it.
All of them hit the floor and broke.
Meanwhile, the phone is still ringing with no let up,
and I finally got to answer it. It was your wife. Â
She wanted to know how to use a rectal thermometer.
and believe me Mister, as God is my witness ..
All I Did Was Tell Her Where to.
