   One man was explaining to another why he fired his secretary:
     
     Two weeks ago, it was my 45th birthday, and I wasn't feeling too hot
     when I got up that morning anyway.  I went into my breakfast knowing
     that my wife would be pleasant and say "Happy Birthday" and probably
     have a present for me, but she didn't even say "Good Morning." I said,
     "Well, that's a wife for you, the children will remember." The children 
     came into breakfast and didn't say a word.  When I started to the office
     I was feeling very low and despondent.
     
     As I walked into my office, Janet said, "Good Morning, boss... Happy
     Birthday."  Then I felt a little better that someone remembered.  I 
     worked until noon. About noon she knocked at the door and said, "you
     know, it's such a beautiful day outside, and it's your birthday. Let's
     go out to lunch - just you and me."  So I said, "That's the best thing
     I've heard all day.  Let's go".
     
     We went to lunch.  We didn't go to the place we usually went to. Instead 
     we went to a little place in the country, which was more private. We 
     had two martinis, and lunch was tremendous.  We enjoyed it a lot. On 
     the way back to the office, she said, "You know. it's such a beautiful 
     day.  Do we have to go back to the office?"  I said, "No, I guess not".
     
     She said, "let's go over to my apartment and I'll fix you another 
     martini."  We went to her apartment.  We enjoyed another martini and 
     then she said, "If you don't mind, I think I'll go into the bedroom and 
     change into something more comfortable."  I said, "OK" as I didn't mind 
     a bit.
     
     She went into the bedroom, and in about five minutes she came out of
     the bedroom carrying a large birthday cake, followed by my wife and
     children, and they were all singing "Happy Birthday."
     
     And there I sat with nothing on but my socks.
