A young Capo invited the Godfather over for dinner.  During the meal,
the Godfather couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the
housekeeper was.  Over the course of the evening he started to wonder if
there was more between the young Capo and the housekeeper than met the eye.
Reading the Godfathers thoughts, the young Capo volunteered, "I
know what you must be thinking, but I assure you Godfather, my relationship with my
housekeeper is purely professional."

About a week later the housekeeper mentioned to the young Capo,
"Sir, ever since the Godfather came to dinner, I've been unable to find the
beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose he took it do you?"  The
Capo said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write him a letter just to be sure."

So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Godfather, I'm not saying that you 'did'  take
a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a  gravy
ladle.  But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were
here for dinner."

Several days later the young Capo received a letter from the Godfather which read:
"Dear Capo, I'm not saying  that you 'do' sleep with your
housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your
housekeeper. But the fact remains that if you were sleeping in your own  bed,
you would have found the gravy ladle by now!
