SILVER PLATE

A Mom comes to visit her son for dinner…..who lives with a girl room-mate . During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how pretty her son's room-mate was. She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more curious.

Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between her son and his room-mate than met the eye.

Reading his mom's thoughts, son volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, she and I are just room-mates." About a week later, the girl came! to the son saying, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver plate. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" he said ,"Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure."

So he sat down and wrote :

Dear Mother:

I'm not saying that you 'did' take the silver plate from my house, I'm not saying that you 'did not' take the silver plate .. But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Love,
Your son

Several days later, he received an email from his Mother which read

Dear Son:
I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your room-mate, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with her. But the fact remains that if she was sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the silver plate by now under the pillow…

Love,
Mom.
