Joke of the Week
“I thought I had some money,” my husband said, surveying his empty wallet. “Do you have $20?” he asked.
I work at home and don’t usually carry a lot of cash, but I had found $40 in my husband’s jeans the last time I did laundry and had triumphantly hoarded the cash.
“I think this is yours,” I said, relinquishing the money.
“Where did you get this?” he said happily.
“Oh,” I replied casually, “it is laundered money.”
