“About Baked Beans...”

 

Once upon a time, there lived a man who had a maddening passion for baked beans.  He loved them, but they always had a very embarrassing and somewhat lively reaction on him.   Then one day he met a girl and fell in love.   When it became apparent that they would marry, he thought to himself, "She is such a sweet and gentle girl; she will never go for this kind of carrying on."  So he made the supreme sacrifice.  He gave up baked beans.

 

They were married shortly thereafter.

 

Some months later, his car broke down on the way home from work, and since they lived in the country, he had to walk home.  On the way home, he went into a small cafe and called his wife and told her that he would be late because he had several miles to walk home.

 

After making the call, he smelled the air in the cafe, and he smelled baked beans.  These were not just any baked beans, though.  They were the best beans he had ever smelled!  He could not resist and had three large orders of baked beans.  All the way home he had gas, and after arriving home, he felt reasonably safe that he had finished the job.

 

His wife seemed excited and somewhat agitated to see him, exclaiming, "Darling, I have the most wonderful surprise for dinner tonight!"  She blindfolded him and led him to his chair at the head of the dining room table.  He seated himself.  Just as she was about to remove the blindfold, the telephone rang.  She made him vow not to touch the blindfold until she returned.

 

Seizing the opportunity of her absence, he shifted his weight to one leg and let go.  It was not loud, but as ripe as rotten eggs.  He took the napkin from his lap and vigorously fanned the air about him.  Things had just returned to normal when he felt another urge coming on.  So he shifted his weight to the other leg and let go again.  This was a prize winner.  He figured that he must be done.  But then he made a third one.  This one made the crystal in the cabinet shake, and the flowers at the table wilt!  Yet somehow his wife didn't hear him.  While keeping his ear on the phone conversation in the hall, he again fanned vigorously until he heard the phone farewells, indicating the end of his freedom.

 

He placed his napkin on his lap and folded his hands on top of it, and smiled contentedly to himself, and was the very picture of innocence when his wife returned.  Apologizing for taking so long, she asked if he had peeked.  He assured her that he had not.  At this point, she removed the blindfold and there was his surprise --

 

Twelve dinner guests seated around the table for his surprise birthday party!
