“Robson, do you know why you are like a donkey?” the jester queried. “Like a donkey echoed Robson, opening his eyes wide. “I don’t.” “Because your better half is stubbornness itself.” The jest pleased Robson immensely, for he at once saw the opportunity for a glorious dig at his wife. So when he got home ho said: “Dear, do you know why I am like a donkey?” He waited a moment, expecting his wife to give it up. But she didn’t. She looked at him somewhat pityingly as she answered; “I suppose it’s because you were born so.” <X*X*X*X*X>
