A popular motivational speaker was entertaining his audience. He Said :
“The best years of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who wasn’t
my wife!” The audience was in silence and shock.
The speaker added: “And that woman was my mother!”
Laughter and applause.
A week later, a top manager trained by the motivational speaker tried to
crack this very effective joke at home. He was a bit foggy after a drink.
He said loudly to his wife who was preparing dinner, “The greatest years
of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who was not my wife!”
The wife went; “ah!” with shock and rage.
Standing there for 20 seconds trying to recall the second half of the
joke, the manager finally blurted out “…and I can’t remember who she
was!”
By the time the manager regained his consciousness, he was on a hospital
bed nursing burns from boiling water
Moral of the story : Don’t copy if you can’t paste!
