Jack wakes up at home with a huge hangover after the night of his office Christmas party. <br /> <br />He forces himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins next to a glass of<br />water on the side table. <br />And, next to them, a single red rose! <br />Jack sits down and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed.<br />Jack looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotlessly clean. <br />So is the rest of the house. <br />He takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at him in the bathroom<br />mirror, and notices a note on the table,<br /><br />"Breakfast is on the stove, I left early to go shopping. -- Love you, Jill"<br /><br />He stumbles to the kitchen, and sure enough, there is hot breakfast and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating. <br />Jack asks, "Son . . . what happened last night?"<br /><br />Jack's son answers, "Well, you came home after 3 a.m., drunk and out of your mind. You broke some furniture, barfed in the hallway, and got that black eye when you ran into the door!"<br /><br />Jack says, "So, why is everything in such perfect order, so clean? I have a red rose, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me."<br /><br />His son replies, "Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, 'Leave me alone, lady, I'm married!'"<br /><br />Broken furniture - $85.26<br />Hot breakfast - $4.20<br />Red rose bud - $3.00<br />Two aspirins - $0.38<br />Saying the right thing at the right time . . .<br />Priceless
