A Mom comes to visit her son Matt for dinner…..who lives with a girl roommate Janet
During the course of the meal, his mother couldn’t help but notice how pretty Matt’s roommate was. She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, 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 Matt and his roommate than met the eye. Reading his mom’s thoughts, Matt volunteered, “I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Janet and I are just roommates.”
About a week later, Janet came to Matt saying, “Ever since your mother came to dinner, I’ve been unable to find the silver jar. You don’t suppose she took it, do you?” Matt said ,”Well, I doubt it, but I’ll email her, just to be sure.”
So he sat down and wrote:
Dear Mother,
I’m not saying that you ‘did’ take the silver jar from my house, I’m not saying that you ‘did not’ take the silver jar. But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Love,
Matt

Several days later, Matt received an email from his Mother which read
Dear Son,
I’m not saying that you ‘do’ sleep with Janet, and I’m not saying that you ‘do not’ sleep with Janet. But the fact remains that if she was sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the silver jar by now under the pillow…
