Walks to a ‘window’ and opens it. Sniffs one direction, then the other.
Husband -- It’s from the east. There … no … yes … around the corner … that’s it! Got it. The McCaulley’s are having a barbecue.
Wife -- You’ve got to be kidding.
Husband -- No, burgers and brats. Do we have any in the fridge? I’m sure they wouldn’t mind if we stopped by.
Wife -- You’re telling me that you can smell the McCaulley’s cooking hamburgers and brats from here?
Husband -- I think it was the sauerkraut that first got my attention.
Wife -- No way! They live three blocks away! And on the other side of the elementary school!
Husband -- So?
Wife -- So why is it that I can wear a new perfume and you’re oblivious? Huh? How is it that the garbage bin can overflow with reeking refuse and you pass it by without a glimmer of notice? But somehow you can smell charcoal burnt meat in the next neighborhood?
Husband -- Man, I hope he doesn’t burn it.
