President Bill: We now call to order the September meeting of the He-Man's What Have I Gotten Myself Into Club. Would the Secretary read the Agenda?
Secretary Fred: Our first item is "How many pillows are enough?"
Bill: Well, that's going to take some time. Let's go through the items one at a time. Okay guys, what do you think? How many pillows are enough?
Jim: One.
(LAUGHTER)
Jim: Why do you need more than one pillow? Especially since you're not allowed to use them for support?
Bill: Jim, did you actually try to set your head on one of the pillows propped up so nice on your bed?
Jim: Well yes, I did.
Bill: And how many nights did you have to sleep on the couch in punishment?
Jim: Three.
Bill: Let me tell you what I have learned. The proper number of pillows is whatever the current number is, plus one or two more.
Fred: The pillows are all from Noah's Ark. They come in pairs.
Jim: Why do the pillows on the sofa have to be karate chopped in the middle? It makes them look like weird cats with their ears all pushed together.
Bill: Why does the sun come up in the east? It just does. They must be chopped.
Harry: That's not a logical answer.
Bill (SPITTING and COUGHING): Don't say stuff like that when I'm drinking my coffee! Logic? Logic? There's no logic in fashion. There's only rules.
Fred: And the rules say you should never offer a negative opinion on anything. Always positive, that's the trick.
Harry: What if it's butt-ugly?
Fred: That is your fault for not seeing how well it ties in with the curtains or the wallpaper. It's beautiful. You're the ugly one. And I hate you for saying you don't like it. You can sleep on the sofa tonight.
Bill (INTERRUPTING): I think we have covered that one. Here's the rule I use for the question about pillows on the bed. When there are too many to fit on the bed, you might -- just might -- be getting close to enough.
Fred: The second agenda item is when can you put your feet up on the coffee table?
Jim: I know that one. It's a trick question. Never.
Bill: There is one other time, but we don't say it out loud.
Harry: Why not?
Fred: We don't want to get caught and kicked out of the den where the television is.
Jim: Tell us.
Harry: Yes, tell us!
Bill (WHISPERING): When she's not home.
