Jane was a first time contestant on the $65,000 quiz show. Lady
luck had smiled in her favor, as Jane had a gained substantial
lead over her opponents. She even managed to win the game but,
unfortunately, time had run out before the show’s host could ask
her the big question.
Jane agreed to return the following day. Jane was nervous as her
husband drove them home. “I’ve just gotta win tomorrow. I wish I
knew what the answers are! You know I’m not going to sleep at
all tonight. I will probably look like garbage tomorrow.
“Relax honey,” her husband, Roger, reassured her, “It will all
be OK.”
Ten minutes after they arrived home, Roger grabbed the car keys
and started heading out the door. “Where are you going?” Jane
asked.
“I have a little errand to run. I should be back soon.”
After an agonizing 3 hour absence, Roger returned, sporting a
very wide and wicked grin. “Honey, I managed to get tomorrow’s
question and answer!”
“What is it?” she cried excitedly.
“OK. The question is ‘What are the three main parts of the male
anatomy?’ And the answer is ‘The head, the heart, and the
penis.'” The couple went to sleep with Jane, now feeling at
ease, plummeting into a deep slumber.
At 3:30 a.m., however, Jane was shaken awake by Roger, who was
asking her the quiz show question. “The head, the heart, and the
penis,” Jane replied groggily before returning to sleep. And
Roger asked her again in the
morning, this time as Jane was brushing her teeth. Once again,
Jane replied correctly.
So it was that Jane was once again on the set of the quiz show.
Even though she knew the question and answer, she could feel
butterflies. The cameras began running and the host, after
reminding the audience of the previous days’ events, faced Jane
and asked the big question.
“Jane, for $65,000, what are the main parts of the male anatomy?
You have 10 seconds.”
“Hmm, uhm, the head?” she said nervously.
“Very good. Six seconds.”
“Eh, uh, the heart?”
“Very good! Four seconds.”
“I, uhh, ooooooohh, darn! My husband drilled it into me last
night and I had it on the tip of my tongue this morning…”
“That’s close enough!” said the game show host,
“CONGRATULATIONS!!”
