A wife was in bed with her companion when she heard her husband’s key in the door. “Stay where you are,” she said. “He’s so intoxicated he won’t notice you’re here.”

Sure enough, the husband stumbled into bed, unaware of the situation, but a few moments later, through his haze, he noticed six feet sticking out at the foot of the bed.

He turned to his wife, puzzled. “Hey, there are six feet in this bed. There should only be four. What’s going on?”

“You’re imagining things,” said the wife. “You’re so drunk you miscounted. Get out of bed and try again. You’ll see better from over there.”

The husband got out of bed and counted again. “One, two, three, four. Well, you’re right.”
