An attorney arrived home late after a very tough day trying to get a stay of execution for his client. His last minute plea for clemency had failed and he was 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 family ritual, he poured himself a shot of whisky 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. His wife answered and was told by the governors office, that her husband's client, James Wright, had been granted a stay of execution an would not be hanged tonight.
Finally, realising 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.
He whirled around and screamed, " FOR GODS SAKE WOMAN, DON'T YOU EVER STOP?!!.
