Don's Wife Leaves Him for Another Woman

My Throat's Too Small

There was a rumor about Don.  His wife came home from work and found him lying on the couch, in only his tighty whities, next to his teenage daughter.  The wife wasn’t pleased.

 

Don smoked constantly.  His voice was horrid.  His co-workers couldn’t  stand to look at him and never spoke to him.

He had a throat so tiny that once when he went in for an operation, the doctors had to cancel it because they couldn’t get the tube down his throat for anesthesia.  Doctors claimed his throat was tinier than a small straw.  If he tried to drink water from a fountain he’d just choke and say “Aah, My throat’s too small.”

His wife left him for another woman.  The hatred for Don increased at work.  He got demoted.  He went from receiver, to dock sweeper.

Eventually, the warehouse he worked at closed down and Don wandered the streets smoking old cigarette butts and drinking water from puddles, very carefully as not to choke.
