A man who got married to a woman he never knew had a very special late night habit.
Sleeping on the same bed for the very first time with his newly wedded wife, Johnny woke up in the middle of the night after he thought he might have heard the sound of a roaring thunder.
He quickly dashed to the window to ensure it was shut to prevent drops of the imminent rain from gaining access into his bedroom. But it wasn’t any thunder that woke him up; as a matter of fact there were no signs up in the midnight clouds that it would rain.
“It must be my mobile phone”, he said, “I must have accidentally changed its ring tone”.
He reached for his mobile phone but discovers it’s turned off.
While he stood in the dark wondering where the noise could be emanating from, he realized he could have been tricked into renting an apartment that was sandwiched between a midnight orchestra rehearsal ground and an airstrip.
As he returned to his bed hoping to carry out proper investigations in the morning, the sound became heavier. Johnny could feel its distinct high frequency as he stood a few inches from his bed. The sound seemed to be moving in an upward and downward direction. This movement reminded Johnny of his routine activities at the foreign exchange trading floor.
It was filled with all kinds of musical notes; it had a combination of the various tones in music like bass, tenor, alto and soprano.
Suddenly the thunderous sounds went out of control, Johnny was certain a jumbo jet fast approaching must have lost one of its engines and is about crash landing on the roof of his bedroom.
Like what Tom Cruise wouldn’t do in one of those mission impossible movies, Johnny ran for cover into his closet to say his last prayers. While at it, he didn’t forget to commit the life of his newly wedded wife into God’s hands. While all this madness lasted, Johnny’s bride Ann, who is a talented professional sculptor innocently enjoyed the warmth that the night had to offer.
After spending a few hours in the closet and realizing the end of his life would never come, like a brave Harrison Ford in one of those Indiana Jones’ movies, he decided to confront whatever devil that was sent from the very pits of hell to torment him.
He was shocked to discover that he had been running all along from the thunderous snoring sounds from his newly wedded wife.
“How could this be? I got married to you because you are the most beautiful woman on planet earth, why didn’t you tell me a jumbo jet also came along with the wedding package?” Johnny protested in the morning during breakfast.
She gave a simple response that silenced Johnny for good.
She said “Sorry darling, but snoring is also one of my numerous talents!”
