MARRIED COUPLE TALE

ONE DAY A MAN'S WIFE WOKE UP AND TOLD HER HUSBAND THAT
SHE HAD A BAD DREAM AND THAT HE SHOULDN'T GO TO WORK
BECAUSE SHE FELT SURE SOMETHING TERRIBLE WOULD HAPPEN
TO HIM. SO HER HUSBAND STAYED IN BED THAT MORNING;
AND WHILE HE WAS IN BED, A LARGE MIRROR THAT HUNG
ABOVE THE BED FELL AND KILLED HIM.
