Mad Ade, world famous Kebab gourmet, had suspected for some time that his wife Mrs. Mad Ade was unfaithful, though he had no proof. Mrs. Mad Ade mentioned that she intended to go to the movies and would be out for a few hours. As Mrs. Mad Ade went to the door, Mad Ade looked at her pensively, then resumed eating his Kebab. Three hours later, his wife returned, took her coat off and asked Mad Ade if he wanted some coffee. When she returned from the kitchen, Mad Ade asked her to sit down as he wanted to talk to her. "Mrs. Mad Ade," he said, "I want a divorce, because I know you are having an affair."
