The Playpen

Mary Simpson was almost crazy with her three kids. She complained to her best friend:

- They're driving me nuts. Such pests, they give me no rest and I'm half-way to the nut hatch.

- What you need is a playpen to separate the kids from yourself - her friend said.

So Mary bought a playpen. A few days later, her friend called to ask how things were going.

- Superb! I can't believe it - Mary said.

- I get in that pen with a good book and the kids don't bother me one bit!

By the way - Mary is blonde.
