It was a quiet night, and a married couple was fast asleep when the phone rang at 2 a.m. The wife, still half-asleep, picked up the phone. After listening for a moment, she exclaimed, “How should I know? That’s 200 miles from here!” and hung up.
Her husband, now wide awake and curious, asked, “Who was that?”
With a straight face, the wife replied, “Some weirdo asking if the coast was clear!”
The unexpected humor of the situation left the couple in stitches. What could have been an annoying late-night interruption turned into a hilarious story they’ll likely share at every dinner party for months to come.
