Funny Poop
·
A woman was sure that her husband was cheating on
her, and having an affair with the maid. So she laid down a trap.
One evening she suddenly sent the maid home for the weekend and didn't tell the husband.
That night when they went to bed, the husband gave the old story: Excuse me my dear, my stomach aches, and went to the bathroom.
The wife promptly went into the maid's bed. She switched the lights off. When he came in silently, he wasted no time or words but quickly got on top of her...
When he finished and was still panting, the wife said: "You didn't expect to find me in this bed, did you?" And then she switched on the light...
"No madam," said the gardener.

Preakness on
Saturday. Remember the greatest horse
that ever lived? He only won the
Preakness by 2 ½ lengths, but then went on to with the Belmont by an
unbelievable 31 lengths. There was Man
O’ War, there was Citation, and then there was Secretariat.
