After four years of
separation, my wife and I finally divorced amicably. I wanted to date
again, but I had no idea of how to start, so I decided to look in the
personals column of the local newspaper. After reading through all
the listings, I circled three that seemed possible in terms of age
and interest, but I put off calling them.
Two days later,
there was a message on my answering machine from my ex-wife. "I
came over to your house to borrow some tools today and saw the ads
you circled in the paper. Don't call the one in the second column.
It's me."
