Brian invited his mother over for dinner. During the course of the 
Meal, Brian's mother couldn't help but notice how beautiful Brian's 
Roommate, Jennifer, was. Brian's Mum had long been suspicious of a 
Relationship between Brian and Jennifer, and this had only made her 
More curious.   
Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she 
Started to wonder if there was more between Brian and Jennifer than 
Met the eye .   
Reading his mum's thoughts, Brian volunteered, 'I know what you must 
Be thinking, but I assure you Jennifer and I are just roommates.'   
About a week later , Jennifer came to Brian saying, ' Ever since your 
Mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver 
Gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?'   
Brian said, 'Well, I doubt it, but I'll send her an e-mail just to be 
Sure.  So he sat down and wrote:   
Dear Mum,
I'm not saying that you 'did' take the gravy ladle from the house, I'm 
Not saying that you 'did not' take the gravy ladle. 
But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were 
Here for dinner. 
Love, Brian 
Several days later, Brian received an email back from his mother that 
Read: 
____________    _________  
Dear Son, 
I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Jennifer, I'm not saying that 
You 'do not' sleep with Jennifer. 
But the fact remains that if Jennifer is sleeping in her own bed, she 
Would have found the gravy ladle by now. 
Love,           Mum
