[net.social] Pre-Nuptial Contracts

The@sdccsu3.UUCP (12/01/83)

Here is a Jules Feiffer comic strip on pre-nuptial contracts that I
found amusing, and I hope you will too.  I spotted it in the Calendar
section of the LA Times (Sun Nov 27).  Enjoy!

A smiling, handsome young couple, Bobbie and Mandy, are talking:

Bobbie:  Mandy and I have a pre-nuptial agreement.

Mandy:  Bobbie does the laundry.

B:  Mandy does the dishes.

M:  We split the cooking.

B:  My mother's maid does the cleaning and prepares dinner one night a week.

M:  We go out no more than 4 nights a week, 5 occasionally.

B:  Neither one of us goes out alone.

M:  Where does it say that?

B:  (officiously) It's in here somewhere.

M:  (indignantly) I should be able to go out on a date with a girlfriend
    if I want to, Bobbie.

B:  Why should you want to go out without your husband?

M:  Now and then, for a little PRIVACY, Bobbie!

B:  (angrily) If you want privacy don't get married!

M:  (quoting contract) "Arguments shall not escalate into power struggles."

Bobbie scribbles away at the contract...

M:  What are you doing?

B:  (growling) Crossing out the part where you can drive my Porsche!
