Poker Face
Two couples were playing cards one evening. John
accidentally dropped some cards on the floor. When he bent down under the
table to pick them up, he noticed that Bill's wife, legs spread wide,
was not wearing any underwear!
Shocked by this, John...upon trying to sit up again...hit his head on the table
and emerged red-faced. Later, John went to the kitchen to get some
refreshments. Bill's wife followed him and asked...
"Did you see anything that you liked under
there?"
Surprised by her boldness,
John courageously admitted that, well, yes he did.
She said..."You can have
it, but it will cost you $500."
After taking a minute or two to assess the financial and moral costs of this offer,
John indicates that he is indeed interested. She tells him that since her
husband, Bill, works Friday afternoons and John doesn't, that John
should be at her house around 2:00PM Friday afternoon.
When Friday rolls around, John shows up at Bill's house for the planned tryst with
Bill's wife at 2:00PM sharp...and after paying her the agreed upon $500, they
go to her bedroom and close their sexual transaction as Bill's wife had promised. Afterwards,
John quickly dresses and leaves
As was his habit, at 6:00PM,
Bill returned home from work. Upon entering the house and encountering
his wife he asks abruptly... "Did John come by the house this
afternoon?"
With a lump in her throat, Bill's wife answers... "Why yes, he did stop by here
for a few minutes this afternoon."
Her heart nearly skips a beat when her
husband curtly asks... "And did he give you $500?"
In terror she assumes she's
somehow been found out, and after mustering up her best poker face she
replies... "Well, yes...in fact he did give me $500."
Bill, with a satisfied look on his face, surprises his wife by saying..."Good, I was hoping so. John came by my office this morning and borrowed five hundred dollars from me. He promised me he'd stop by our house this afternoon on his way home and pay me back."
