Upset wife

[mariakhan]

Six guys were playing poker when Smith loses $500 on a single
hand, clutches his chest and drops dead at the table. Showing
respect for their fallen comrade, the other five complete
their playing time standing up.

Roberts looks around and asks, "Now, who is going to tell his
wife?"

They draw straws. Rippington, who is always a loser, picks the
short one. They tell him to be discreet, be gentle, don't make
a bad situation any worse than it is.

"Gentlemen! Discreet? I'm the most discreet man you will ever
meet. Discretion is my middle name, leave it to me."

Rippington walks over to the Smith house, knocks on the door,
the wife answers, and asks what he wants. Rippington says,
"Your husband just lost $500 playing cards."

She hollers, "TELL HIM TO DROP DEAD!"

Rippington says, "OK, I'll tell him."
