Mom's Are Smart

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how beautiful John's roommate Julie was. She had long been suspicious of a relationship between John and his roommate, and this only made her more curious.

Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the roommate than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Julie and I are just roommates."

About a week later, Julie came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I can't find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure."

So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner. Love, John"

Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which read: "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Julie, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with Julie. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
 
Well, I found out last night that the dog that my parents "got rid of" when I was 13 actually died, and they lied about it. And never saw fit to tell me the truth...ever. Yet they told my husband. I'm willing to bet that he died because they put him down. And I've spent the last 12 or so hours trying to determine if there's anything they were ever honest with me about, and I've come up with nothing.
 
That's really bad. I can't believe that...geez. I lost both my dogs in 2 days. First died under my bed where she slept all the time. The other died on the bean bag he always slept on. That sux they lied. Can't believe they'd do that.
