Fatty came to visit Skinny and found him searching through his living room for something.
                “What are you looking for, Skinny?” Fatty asked.
                “Well, I bought a gold ring for my wife. But it fell out of my hands as I was showing it to John,” answered Skinny.
                “My wife is out visiting friends. I must find the ring before she gets home because it’s our anniversary. If I don’t find it, she will think I’ve forgotten and become angry with me. Could you please help me find it?”
                “Of course. Tell me, where were you when you lost it?”
                “I was in the front of yard,” Skinny said.               
                “If you were in the front of yard when you lost it, why are you looking it here?”
