Father-in-law and Son-in-law

The father-in-law asked his son-in-law:

"Son-in-law, dear, how are you feeling?"

"All week," replied the son-in-law, "my wife and I have been living like a snake with a dragon, three of those days like a dog with a cat, and on Sunday—like a bridge woven from hair: if I walk across it, it's trouble; if I don't, it's trouble too."

The father-in-law shook his head and said:

"I believe you, son-in-law. My daughter is the spitting image of her mother."
