Joke of the day for May 17

After an enthusiastic recommendation from my wife, I began listening to the audiobook version of a novel.

“I love it, but his writing style is so disjointed,” I complained. “He refers to characters I don’t know and introduces them a half hour later.”

My wife was as confused as I was, but I soldiered on, disoriented by the jumpy story line. It wasn’t until the end of the book that my dilemma was explained: I had my iPod set on “Shuffle.”
