Old Mr. Gluck had finally moved into the suburbs.  On a trip to
New York, he met a friend who bombarded him with questions. "How
do you like it ? Living in the country, so far from everyone!"

"At first I had some problems," said Gluck, 
"I thought I never would be able to stand it! Then I listened to
my neighbors and got a paramour.  From then on, everything  has been
fine!".

"A paramour! You ? Gluck, how could you do such a terrible thing? What
does your wife think ?"

"My wife?", frowned Gluck. "Why should she care how I mow the grass ?"
