One afternoon, a man was reading the newspaper when his wife suddenly came up behind him and smacked him on the head with a frying pan.
“Why in the world did you do that?!” he yelled.
“I found a piece of paper in your coat pocket with the name ‘Suzy’ on it,” she replied.
He rubbed his head and said, “Honey, remember last week when I went to the races with some friends? Suzy was the name of the horse I was betting on.”
She fell silent.
But three days later, as he was reading the newspaper again, his wife emerged from behind him and smacked him on the head again.
“Why again?!” he shouted.
She smiled and said, “Just wanted to let you know… your horse called.”
