DATE NIGHT

A YOUNG MAN CALLED HIS

MOTHER AND ANNOUNCED EXCITEDLY

THAT HE HAD JUST MET

THE WOMAN OF HIS DREAMS.

NOW WHAT SHOULD HE DO? 

HIS MOTHER HAD AN IDEA,

"WHY DON'T YOU SEND HER FLOWERS

AND ON THE CARD

INVITE HER TO YOUR PLACE

FOR A HOME-COOKED MEAL?" 

HE THOUGHT THIS WAS A GREAT

STRATEGY AND ARRANGED A

DATE FOR A WEEK LATER.

HIS MOTHER CALLED

THE DAY AFTER THE BIG DATE

TO SEE HOW THINGS HAD GONE. 

"THE EVENING WAS A DISASTER,"

HE MOANED. 

"WHY, WHAT HAPPENED?"

ASKED HIS MOTHER. 

"OH, SHE CAME OVER,

BUT SHE REFUSED TO COOK."
