An unmarried girl who worked in a busy office arrived one morning and began passing out big cigars and candy, both tied with blue ribbons. When asked what the occasion was, she proudly displayed a new diamond solitaire ring on her third finger, left hand, and announced:
- It's a boy, six feet tall and 190 pounds!
The night before her wedding, the bride-to-be talked with her mother:
- Mom, I want you to teach me how to make my new husband happy. - she said
The mother took a deep breath and began:
- When two people love, honor, and respect each other, love can be a very beautiful thing...
- I know how to fuck, mother - the bride-to-be interrupted.
- I want you to teach me how to make a great lasagna!
- I heard the Warden's daughter up and married a guy down on Cellblock D. The Warden's mighty upset about it too.
- Why? Because she married a con?
- No. Because they eloped!

He really loved her but he was just too shy to propose to her. Now he was up in his years and neither of them had ever been married. Of course, they dated about once a week for the past six years but he was so timid he just never got around to suggesting marriage, much less living together.
But one day, he became determined to ask her the question. So he calls her on the phone:
- Judith?
- Yes, this is Judith.
- Will you marry me?
- Of course. Who's speaking?
