AN ANGRY WIFE'S PRAYER

A man is so addicted to gambling that he often comes home late. His wife never stops railing at him. Once he is detained at his office and comes home late. His wife accuses him of gambling again but he swears he was detained in his office. I pray to God that you are speaking the truth, his wife says.

May God strike me dead if I am lying.

Then I pray to God that you are lying, his wife said hopefully.
