I heard this story on the radio today - made me laugh aloud...

A man was outside mowing his lawn when the mower stopped working. He borrowed his neighbor's mower to finish the lawn. In spite of his wife's repeated requests, he never quite got around to taking the mower to the repair shop.

His wife, frustrated with the shaggy lawn, decided to try to prove her point. She took her small sewing scissors, went outside and started clipping, blade by blade. When the man arrived, he said, "Honey, what are you doing?"

"Cutting the grass," she answered. He turned, went in the house and returned in a few minutes with an old toothbrush.

"While you're out here," he asked, handing her the toothbrush, "do you think you could sweep the driveway?"

His doctors advise that he will be able to walk again, but always with a limp.
