This is a true story.) If you have children you will
probably relate to this father...
As ham sandwiches go, it was perfection. A thick slab
of ham, a fresh bun, crisp lettuce and plenty of
expensive, light brown, gourmet mustard.
The corners of my jaw aching in anticipation, I
carried
it to the table in our backyard, picked it up with
both hands but was stopped by my wife suddenly at my
side. "Hold Johnny (our six-week-old son) while I get
my sandwich," she said.
I had him balanced between my left elbow and shoulder
and was reaching again for the ham sandwich when I
noticed a streak of mustard on my fingers.
I love mustard.
I had no napkin.
I licked it off.
It was not mustard.
No man ever put a baby down faster. It was the first
and only time I have sprinted with my tongue
protruding.
With a washcloth in each hand I did the sort of
routine
shoeshine boys do, only I did it on my tongue.
Later (after she stopped crying from laughing so hard)
my wife said, "Now you know why they call that mustard
"Poupon.'"
This did not happen to me but it was **** funny
