"I realize it's terrible weather out there and I have this huge house all to myself, but I'm recently widowed," she explained and"I'm afraidthe neighbors will talk if I let you stay inthe house."
"Don't worry," Jack said. "We'll be happy to sleep in the barn,and if the weather breaks, we'll be gone at first light." The lady agreed, and the two men foun d their way to the barn and settled in for the night. Come morning, the weather cleared, and they got on their way. They enjoyed a great weekend of skiing.
But about nine months later, Jack got an unexpectedletter from an attorney. It too k him a few minutes tofigure it out, but he finally determined that it was fromtheattorneyrepresentingthat attractive widow hemet on the ski weekend.
He dropped in on his friend Bob and asked:"Bob, do you remember that good-looki ng widowon the farm we stayed atduringour ski holiday up north about 9 months ago?"
"Yes, I do"repliedBob.
"Did you, er, happen to get up in the middle of the night, go up to the house and pay her a visit?"
"Well, um, yes !" Bob answered, a little embarrassed about being found out."I have to admit that I did."
"And did you happen to give her my name instead of telling her your name?"
Bob's face turned beet red and he said "Yeah, look, I'm sorry buddy.I'm afraid I did. Why do you ask?"
"She just died and left me everything."
