snored so badly. They decided it wasn't fair to make one of them stay with
him the whole time, so they voted to take turns.
The first guy slept with Tom and comes to breakfast the next morning with
his hair a mess and his eyes all bloodshot. They said, 'Man, what happened
to you? He said, 'Tom snored so loudly, I just sat up and watched him all
night. '
The next night it was a different guy's turn. In the morning, same thing
hair all standing up, eyes all bloodshot. They said, 'Man, what happened to
you? You look awful!' He said, 'Man, that Tom shakes the roof with his
snoring. I watched him all night.'
The third night was Pete's turn. Pete was a big burly ex-Navy man; a man's
man. The next morning he came to breakfast bright eyed and bushy tailed.
'Good morning,' he said. They couldn't believe it! They said, 'Man, what
happened?'
He said, 'Well, we got ready for bed. I went and tucked Tom into bed, patted
him on the butt, and kissed him good night. Tom sat up and watched me all
night.
