A man and his wife are awakened
at 3 o'clock in the morning by a loud pounding on the door. The man gets
up and goes to the door where a drunken stranger, standing in the pouring
rain, is asking for a push.
"Not a chance," says the
husband, "it is 3 o'clock in the morning!"
He slams the door and returns
to bed.
"Who was that" asked his
wife.
"Just some drunken guy asking
for a push," he answers.
"Did you help him?" she
asks.
"No, I did not! Its 3
o'clock in the morning and it is pouring down rain out there!"
?Well, you have a short
memory," says his wife. "Don't you remember about three monthsago
when
we broke down and those two guys helped us? I think you should help him,
and you should be ashamed of yourself!"
So, the man does as he is told,
gets dressed, and goes out into the pounding rain.
He calls out into the dark,
"Hello, are you still there?"
"Yes," comes back the
answer.
?Do you
still need a push?" calls out the husband.
"Yes, please" comes the reply from the dark.
?Where are you?" asks the
husband.
"Over here on the swing!"
replies the drunk
