Angry Bob

Tonight I was conversing with my wife and mother-in-law. They were talking about how my sister-in-law smacked my brother-in-law with the pan he just ruined.

I was reminded of and I related an old saying about how a good ol’ #10 frying pan upside the head of an errant husband goes a long way to curing his ills. In fact a friend once claimed he had a permanent scar on the back of his head in the shape of the number 10 from having been hit so many times.

All this talk prompted me to rummage through our pots and pans to discover what potential missiles lay at my wife’s disposal.

I produced a cast iron skillet and declared it to be marked with the number 5, to which my wife replied “I guess I’ll have to hit you with it twice then, won’t I?”
