Visit To The Widow
Jack decided to go skiing with his buddy, Bob. They
loaded up Jack's mini van and headed north. After
driving for a few hours,they got caught in a terrible
blizzard. They pulled into a nearby farm and asked
the attractive lady who answered the door if they
could spend the night.
"I realize it's terrible weather out there and I have
this huge house all to myself, but I'm recently widowed,"
she explained. "I'm afraid the neighbors will talk if I let
you stay in my house."
"Don't worry," Jack said. "We'll be happy to sleep in the
barn. And if the weather breaks, we'll be gone at first
light."
The lady agreed, and the two men found their way to
the barn and settled in for the night. Come morning,
the weather had cleared, and they got on their way.
They enjoyed a great weekend of skiing. About nine
months later, Jack got an unexpected letter from an
attorney. It took him a few minutes to figure it out,
but he finally determined that it was from the attorney
of that attractive widow he had met on the ski weekend.
He dropped in on his friend Bob and asked, "Bob, do
you remember that good-looking widow from the farm
we stayed at on our ski holiday up North?"
"Yes, I do."
"Did you happen to get up in the middle of the night, go
up to the house and pay her a visit?"
"Yes," Bob said, a little embarrassed about being found
out. "I have to admit that I did."
"And did you happen to use my name instead of telling
her your name?"
Bob's face turned red and he said, "Yeah, sorry, buddy.
I'm afraid I did. Why do you ask?"
"She just died and left me everything."
