The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for August 25, 2022

Not asking, I’ll keep my questions to myself

If this is about the milkman, then let me tell you about my co-worker, Dave:

“You know,” Dave was telling his buddies, “I’m a lucky man. I never realized how much my wife loved me until the other day when I had to stay home sick from work.”

“What did she do?” someone asked.

“She was so happy to have me home,” he said, “that every time someone came to the door, like the milkman or postman, she’d shout, ‘My husbands home! My husband’s home!’”

Why would the milkman have your key

The milkman always rings twice.

When you spend the bulk of your day in recliners, the clock on the wall is hung at eye level. (Don’t look in the bathroom.)

the find-it today is a glass of milk….!

find it: punchline

Ah, I can remember when the meter-man had keys the everybody’s house.

I might otherwise frown on this, but then, it’s Joy whose “man” is Jerry. And the milkman has distinct advantages. For instance, he can be relied upon to come at least once a week. And any time she wants something special, she can just leave a note. “Mooooo for me, Baby.”

They have milk delivery at home???I don’t think we’ve had that around here since the seventies…
