Related Topics: Coffee

[A Big Ten referee, we’ll call him Dan, sits at home with his wife on a quiet January morning. They are reading the newspaper]

DAN: Quiet morning. [sips coffee]

DAN’S WIFE NANCY: Sure is.

[they continue to read in silence]

DAN: [chuckles quietly]

NANCY: [looking over the top of her glasses] What’s that, dear?

DAN: Oh, that Ziggy.

NANCY: [leans in] Honey, that’s a picture of Mitch McConnell. You know you need to wear your glasses.

DAN: [puts on thick glasses, squints] Hm. So it is. Still pretty funny, though.

[the house rattles perceptibly]

DAN: Must be the wind.
