The power mower was broken and wouldn't run, and the wife kept hinting to
her
husband that he should get it fixed. But, somehow the message never sank in.
Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point. When her husband
arrived
home one day, he found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away
with a
tiny pair of sewing scissors. He watched silently for a short time and then
went
into the house.
He was gone only a few moments. When he came out again, he handed her a
toothbrush. "When you finish cutting the grass," he said, "you might as well
sweep the sidewalks."
The doctors say he will probably walk again, but he will always limp .
