Morris had asked Sol to help him out with the deck after work, so Sol
just went straight over to Morris's place. When they got to the door,
Morris went straight to his wife, gave her a hug and told her how
beautiful she was and how much he had missed her at work. When it was
time for supper, he complimented his wife on her cooking, kissed her
and told her how much he loved her.
Once they were working on the deck, Sol told Morris that he was
surprised that he fussed so much over his wife. Morris said that he'd
started this about 6 months ago, it had revived their marriage, and
things couldn't be better.
Sol thought he'd give it a go. When he got home, he gave his wife
Esther a massive hug, kissed her and told her that he loved her. His
wife burst into tears. Sol was confused and asked why she was crying.
Esther said, "This is the worst day of my life. First, little Joshua
fell off his bike and twisted his ankle. Then, the washing machine
broke and flooded the basement. And now, you come home drunk!"
