[Mishmash] Cuckoo Clock

[LCR at rochester.rr.com]

Just another brilliant example of how men think on their feet......  how fortunate we are! 

The other night I was invited out for a night with  "the boys". I told my wife that I would be home by midnight...promise!  Well, the hours passed and the beer was going down way too easy. At around 2:30 am, drunk as a skunk, I headed for home. Just as I  got  in   the door,the cuckoo clock in the hall started up and cuckooed 3  times.  Quickly, I realized she'd probably wake up, so I cuckooed another 9 times. I was really proud of myself, having a quick witty solution, even  when  smashed, to escape a possible conflict. 
 The next morning my wife asked  me what time I got in, and I told her twelve o'clock. She didn't  seem  disturbed at all. Whew! Got away with that one! 
  She then told me that we needed a new cuckoo clock. When I asked  her  why, she said, "Well, last night our clock cuckooed three times,  then  said "oh sh--", cuckooed 4 more times, cleared its throat, cuckooed another 3 times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then farted.
