Well, after the conference I went home and told my husband, Barrington, that I would no longer cook for him and that he would have to do it himself! After the first day, I saw nothing. After the second day, I saw nothing. But on the third day, I saw that he has cooked a wonderful roast lamb." The crowd applauded. The second speaker, a lady from Russia, stood up and said, "After last year's conference I went home and told my husband, Ivan, that I would no longer do his laundry and that he would have to do it himself. After the first day, I saw nothing. After the second day, I saw nothing. But on the third day, I saw that he had done not only his own washing, but my washing as well." The crowd again applauded. The third speaker, a Cajun lady from Tibedoux, Louisiana, stood up and said, "Afta last years' conference, I went rat home and tole dat lazy Coonass husband'a mine, Boudroux, dat I wadn't gonna do no mo'a his cookin', cleanin' or shoppin' and dat he wuz gonna have to do it all fer hissef."
