Accompanied by his sister, he went to a women's wear shop and bought a pair of expensive gloves. Meanwhile, his sister bought a pair of panties. In the delivery, the packages got mixed up; his sister got the gloves and he got the panties. Without checking the contents of the package, he sent it to his sweetheart with the following note: Dearest One, This little gift is to show you I have not forgotten your birthday. I chose them because I noticed you were not in the habit of wearing any when you went out in the evenings. I it hadn't been for my sister, who was with me when I bought them, I would have picked out long ones with buttons, but she said the latest style is to wear them unbuttoned, and hanging down. I had her try them on for me and she looked very smart in them. How I wish I could put them on for you the first time, but no doubt many other hands will touch them before I have a chance. I did not know what size to get, yet I should be capable of judging better than anyone else. When you take them off, blow in them as they will be a little damp from wearing them. Be sure to keep them on while cleaning them; otherwise they will shrink. With my fondest love, P.S. Just think of the number of times I will kiss the back of them in the coming year. -- Edited by Brad Templeton. MAIL, yes MAIL your jokes to watmath!looking!funny .
