Three men were sitting together bragging about how they had given
their new wives 'duties':

The first man had married a woman from Iowa and had told her that
she was going to do the dishes and house cleaning. It took a couple
days, but on the third day he came home to a clean house and dishes
washed and put away.

The second man had married a woman from Mississippi. He had given
his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes, and the
cooking. The first day he didn't see any results, but the next day he
saw it was better. By the third day, he saw his house was clean, the
dishes were done, and there was even a huge dinner on the table.

The third man had married a girl from SOUTH CAROLINA. He told her
that her duties were to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn
mowed, laundry done and hot meals on the table for every meal... He said
the first day he didn't see anything, the second day he didn't see
anything, but by the third day some of the swelling had gone down and he
could see a little out of his left eye... enough to fix himself a bite
to eat and load the dishwasher.
