Somebody once asked Johnny Cash
what the secret to a successful marriagewas--his second had worked out well.
In his tremulous baritone,
Johnny answered, "Two
bathrooms." Once upon
an era, a lucky couple had two
bathrooms, one downstairs,
one upstairs, where bedrooms
were. One night around midnight,
the husband noticed the upstairs
bathroom had no toilet paper.
He trudged downstairs
to where a storeroom lay,
and where an awakened cat
looked at him the way a general
looks at a private. The man
apologized to the furry general,
fetched rolls of toilet paper,
and took them upstairs.
In the morning, the wife said,
"I noticed you got us some toilet
paper in the middle of the night.
That is love," she added.
