A married couple is driving along
a highway doing a steady forty miles
per hour.
The wife is behind the wheel. Her
husband suddenly looks across at
her and speaks in a clear voice.
"Darling," he says. "I know we've
been married for twenty years,
but I want a divorce."
The wife says nothing, keeps
looking at the road ahead but slowly
increases her speed to 45 mph.
The husband speaks again. "I don't
want you to try to talk me out of it",
he says, "because I've been having
an affair with your best friend, and
she's a far better lover than you are."
Again the wife stays quiet, but
grips the steering wheel more tightly
and slowly increases the speed
to 55.
He pushes his luck.
"I want the house,"
he says insistently.
Up to 60mph.
"I want the car, too,"
he continues...
65 mph
"And," he says,
"I'll have the bank accounts,
all the credit cards and the boat."
The car slowly starts veering
towards a massive concrete bridge.
This makes him a wee bit nervous,
so he asks her: "Isn't there anything
you want?"
The wife at last replies -
in a quiet and controlled voice.
"No, I've got everything I need."
she says.
"Oh, really?" he inquires,
"So what have you got?"
Just before they slam into the wall
at 75 mph, the wife turns to him
and smiles.
