Emailed to me from another humor list (Ian's Humour List)
Unfortunately, as of July 1999, Ian's HumourList is no longer on the web.
A lady noticed her husband standing on the bathroom scale, sucking in

she commented, "I don't think that's going to help."
"Sure it does," he said. "It's the only way I can see the numbers."
