Wise King Solomon (a twist on the parable)

==================================

Two women came before wise King Solomon, dragging
between them a young man in a three-piece suit.

"This young CPA agreed to marry my daughter," said one.

"No! He agreed to marry MY daughter," said the other.

And so they haggled before the King, until he demanded silence.

"My sword! Bring me my biggest sword," said Solomon, "and
we shall hew the young man in half. Each of you shall
receive a half."

"Fine. Sounds good to me," said the first lady.

But the other woman said, "Oh Sire, do not spill innocent
blood. Let this other woman's daughter marry him."

The wise king did not hesitate a moment. "Indeed, the accountant
must marry the first lady's daughter," he proclaimed.

"But she was willing to hack him in two!" exclaimed
the king's court.

"Precisely!" said wise King Solomon. "That shows she is the
TRUE mother-in-law."
