I Explain Something for My Husband

Lew went to the grocery store yesterday and bought a gift for me because he knew I was suffering from a cold.

The gift was a package of Oreo cookies.

"Now don't eat these all at once, Baby," Lew said to me.

"Okay.  I won't."

Did you ever hear the story about the frog and the scorpion?  The scorpion needs to cross the river, so he  asks the frog to carry him across.  "I promise not to sting you," says the scorpion.  Halfway across he stings the frog anyway and they both end up drowning.  With his dying breath the scorpion explains, "It's in my nature."

And that's why all of the Oreo cookies are already gone.
