IMPOTENCE STORY-VARIANT

MRS. JONES WENT TO THE DOCTOR TO SEEK INFORMATION ABOUT
WHAT TO DO ABOUT HER HUSBAND. APPARENTLY, HE HAD LOST
HIS SEXUAL URGE AND SHE WONDERED IF THE DOCTOR HAD
SOMETHING FOR SUCH A PROBLEM. THE DOCTOR, OF COURSE,
HAD JUST THE THING. MRS. JONES WAS TO PUT SOME POWDER
IN MR. JONES' FOOD AND THE RESULTS WOULD BE ALMOST
IMMEDIATE. A FEW WEEKS AFTER THE VISIT, THE DOCTOR
MET MRS. JONES AND ASKED HER WHAT HAD HAPPENED.
"WELL," MRS. JONES RELATED, "I GAVE HIM SOME POWDER
THAT VERY EVENING AND NOTHING HAPPENED. I GAVE HIM SOME
MORE FOR BREAKFAST AND AGAIN, NOTHING HAPPENED.
THE NEXT NIGHT WHILE WE WERE EATING DINNER,
I SPRINKLED A LIBERAL SUPPLY ON HIS PLATE WHEN HE WASN'T
LOOKING. A FEW MINUTES LATER, HE PULLED OFF THE TABLE
CLOTH, THREW THE DISHES WILDLY INTO THE AIR, GRABBED
ME, TORE OFF MY DRESS, LAID ME ON THE TABLE AND
PRACTICALLY RAPED ME."
"YOU SOUND AS IF YOU WERE DISAPPOINTED, MRS. JONES,"
SAID THE DOC.
"WELL, I ENJOYED THE INTERCOURSE, BUT WE ARE NOT ALLOWED
TO GO INTO HOWARD JOHNSON'S ANYMORE," SAID MRS. JONES.
