A Terrible Night

It was a terrible night, blowing cold and rain in a most
frightful manner. The streets were deserted, and the local
baker was just about to close up shop when a little man
slipped through the door. He carried an umbrella, blown
inside out, and he was bundled in two sweaters and a thick
coat. But even so, he still looked wet and bedraggled.

As he unwound his scarf, he said to the baker, "May I have
two bagels to go, please?"

The baker said in astonishment, "Two bagels? Nothing more?"

"That's right," answered the little man. "One for me and one
for Bernice."

"Bernice is your wife?" asked the baker.

"What do you think?" snapped the little man. "My mother
would never send me out on a night like this!"
