The Doctor says: "I have a real good cure for that. When your husband
comes home drunk, just take a glass of sweet tea and start swishing it
in your mouth. Just swish and swish but don't swallow until he goes to
bed and is asleep."
Two weeks later the woman comes back to the doctor looking fresh and
reborn.
The woman says: "Doctor, that was a brilliant idea! Every time my
husband came home drunk, I swished with sweet tea. I swished and
swished, and he didn't touch me! How does the tea do that?"
The Doctor says: "The tea does bugger all, it's keeping your mouth shut
that does the trick!"
