A Cadillac pulled into the driveway in front of a well-tended yard and the driver motioned to the tall, dark man who’d just finished mowing the lawn. When the yardman approached, wiping his face with a rag, the driver asked, “How much do you charge for your services?”
Without cracking a smile, the yardman replied, “I don’t charge for keeping this yard trim. But the job does have its perks. I sleep with the lady-of-the-house, after all.”
When the couple drove off—no doubt shocked, thinking the worst—my dad put the mower up, and came back into the house.
