The Divorce

[bfez1]

THE LAST WORD

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 and 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 goes the speed to 60.

"I want the car, too," he
continues. The speed is now 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 flyover.
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 enquires, "so what have
you got?"

Just before they slam into the wall at 80 mph, the wife turns
to him
and smiles.

"The airbag."
