58. Nasruddin’s Two Wives

Nasruddin had two wives and he loved them both, but they were very jealous of one another, always competing for his affections.

In order to make peace in the house, Nasruddin got two identical green ribbons. He took each wife aside in private and gave her one of the ribbons. “Wear this under your clothes, but secretly; don’t show or tell anyone.”

The next time the two wives ambushed him, asking which of them he loved more, Nasruddin smiled and said, “All I will say is that the one wearing the green ribbon is the one I love the most.”

Nothing much happening since my trip to Sierra Vista. I’ll be ordering the Starlink Mini this weekend and then maybe have it up and running in a couple of weeks. I think Verizon has tapped into my blog and saw that I planned on leaving. I’ve been getting better service from them these past few days. Not good service, still some NO SERVICE, but better.
