"Putting The Cat Out" joke
A man and his wife were all ready to go out for the evening. They had gotten all dolled up, put the cat out and were just waiting for the taxi to arrive.
The taxi arrived, and as they walked out of their house, the cat ran back inside.
Not wanting their often rowdy cat to have free run of the house while they were out, the husband went back upstairs to chase the cat out.
The wife, not wanting it known that the house would be empty, explained to the taxi driver, "He won't be long. He's just going upstairs to say goodbye to my mother."
A few minutes later, the husband got into the cab and said, "Sorry I took so long. The stupid old thing was hiding under the bed and I had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out!"
