Mrs. Cohen comes to visit her son Simon for dinner, who lives with a
Female roommate, Rachel. During the course of the meal, his mother
Couldn’t help but notice how pretty Simon's roommate was. She had long been Suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more curious.

Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Simon and his roommate than met the eye.
Reading his mom's thoughts, Simon volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Rachel and I are just roommates."
About a week later, Rachel came to Simon saying, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver sugar bowl. You don't suppose she took it, do you?"
Simon replied, " Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure."
So he sat down and wrote:

Dear Momma, I'm not saying that you 'did' take the sugar bowl from my house, I'm not saying that you 'did not' take it. But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.
Love,
Simon

Several days later, Simon received a response email from his Momma which read:

Dear Son,
I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Rachel, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with her. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the sugar bowl by now.
Love,
Momma
