Why Didn't You Say So?
A man was known among his friends for being economical with everything, including words. One day, a saleswoman from a kitchenware company knocked and asked to see his wife. He said she wasn't home.
"May I wait for her?" the woman asked.
He invited her in and left her waiting for three hours. Finally, growing impatient, she asked, "Could you tell me where your wife is now?"
"At the cemetery."
"When will she be back?"
"I don't know. She's been there for eleven years."
