An attorney came home after a day trying to get a stay of execution for a client, named Wilbur Wright, who was due to be hanged for murder at midnight. His last minute plea for clemency to the state governor hadn't come through, and he was feeling depressed.
As soon as he got through the door his wife started, "What time of night do you call this? Where have you been?" Not playing his usual role in this ritual, he went and poured himself a whiskey and headed off to the bathroom for a long, hot soak, pursued by sarcastic remarks.
While he was in the bath the phone rang, which the wife answered, and was told that her husband's client had been granted his stay of execution after all. Realizing what a day he had,she relented and went to give him the good news. As she opened the bathroom door she was greeted by the sight of him naked as he was cleaning the tub.
"They're not hanging Wright tonight", she said, at which he screamed hysterically, "For Mercy's sake, don't you ever stop"?
