Kind Of Ironic

[Dollymarie]

John wanted to go skiing with his buddy Rob, so they loaded up John?'s minivan and headed north.? After driving for a few hours, they got caught in a terrible blizzard.? So they pulled into a nearby drive leading to a magnificent estate. ?They asked the attractive woman who answered the door if they could spend the night.

"I realize it's terrible weather out there, and I have this huge place all to myself, but I'm recently widowed," she explained.? "I'm afraid the neighbors will talk if I let you stay in the main house."

"Don't worry," John said.? "We'll be happy to sleep in the gatehouse.? And if the weather breaks, we'll be gone at first light."? The lady agreed, and the two men found their way back to the gatehouse 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

But about nine months later John 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 Rob and asked, "Rob, do you remember that good-looking widow from the farm we stayed at on our ski holiday up north about 9 months ago?"

"Yes, I do." said Rob

"Did you, er, happen to get up in the middle of the night, go up to the house, and pay her a visit?"

"Well, um, yes," Rob 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?"

Rob's face turned beet red, and he said, "Yeah, look, I'm sorry, buddy.? I'm afraid I did.

"Why do you ask?"

"She just died and left me everything."

(And you thought the ending would be different, didn't you?)

Now keep that smile for the rest of the day.
