The only person who asks more questions than a lawyer is the Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage. I am not saying that questions are bad, at least not all of them. What I am saying is, some questions can be trick questions.

this a trick to see if I am really on board? I could not understand any 
of this at this point. 

I thought to myself, “Can a person live with another person as long as
we have and not know what's going on?” 

Finally, I looked at her and rolled my eyes up and down, hoping that she
would take the hint. However, it was a useless gesture. 

“Have you seen my glasses? I need them right now.” 

At this point, it was all I could do to keep from laughing hysterically.
I knew if I did that sort of thing, I would be in a lot of trouble. How 
can you keep from laughing when the situation before you is of 
hysterical proportions? 

My wife stood in front of me both hands on her hips and then she lifted
her right hand to scratch her head and discovered her glasses were on 
top of her head. 

“Oh,” she said as she spun around to leave, “here they are on the top of
my head.” 

Now what do I do with that? Do I laugh or pretend I do not know what
happened? Then, she turned around and looking at me said, “You better 
not laugh.” 

It reminded me of a verse in the Bible. “For now we see through a glass,
darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I 
know even as also I am known” (1 Corinthians 13:12). 

Sometimes what we are looking for is right in front of us, but we can't
see it.
