On our first trip to Philadelphia, my husband, Matt, and I became hopelessly lost. Matt was loath to ask for directions, but after we both grew weary of walking, he reluctantly approached an outdoor newspaper vendor.
After Matt explained our dilemma, the vendor walked into the sun at the edge of the sidewalk, turned his head from side to side, then gave us directions.
Matt joined me a short distance away. "I don't believe I did that," he said. "The man who just gave me directions is blind."

The poor old clunker of a piano I had impulsively bought languished in a corner of our living room for a year.
"It's the piano or me!" my wife finally declared.
So I called a junk man whom I knew to collect it the next day.
When he didn't show, I phoned again. "I've already got your piano on my truck," he claimed.
"Nope," I said, "it's still here." It turns out he had gone to a house on my street and asked the lady who answered the door if she had a piano to go. She'd said yes.
After we talked, he took it back to her house, but she turned him away. She'd wanted to get rid of her piano for years.

The husband was not home at his usual hour, and the wife was fuming, as the clock ticked later and later. Finally, about 3:00 AM she heard a noise at the front door, and as she stood at the top of the stairs, there was her husband, drunk as a skunk, trying to navigate the stairs.
"Do you realize what time it is," she said.
He answered, "Don't get excited, I'm late because I bought something for the house."
Immediately her attitude changed, and as she ran down the stairs to meet him halfway, she said, "What did you buy for the house, dear?"
His answer was, "A round of drinks!"
