What Was He Thinking?

A couple was dressed and ready to go out for the evening. They phoned for a cab, turned on a night light, cover their pet parakeet and put the cat out in the back yard. But when the taxi arrived, and they opened the front door to leave, the cat they had put out, suddenly scoots back into the house. They don't want the cat shut in there because she always tries to eat the bird. S0 the wife went out to the taxi while the husband went back in. The cat ran upstairs, with the man in hot pursuit.

Because the wife didn't want the driver to know the house will be empty, she explained to the taxi driver that her husband will be out soon. "He's just going upstairs to say goodbye to my mother." A few minutes later the husband got into the cab, and said, "Sorry I took so long.” And as they drove away, he added, "Stupid hag was hiding under the bed. Had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out! Then I had to wrap her in a blanket to keep her from scratching me. But it worked. I hauled her fat butt downstairs and threw her out into the back yard!” The cab driver hit a parked car.
