Mr. and Mrs. Shoenfeld were asleep in their beds late one night when Mrs. Shoenfeld heard a noise downstairs.
“Wake up!” cried Mrs. Schoenfeld, nudging her husband. “There are burglars in the kitchen. I think they are eating the pot roast I made tonight!”
“In that case,” said Mr. Shoenfeld, “I sure hope they don’t die in the house.”
