Standing there in my underwear with Mrs. Zont reading in bed. Cell phone rings...
"Uhhh, Mr. Zont, sorry to call you so late but you left the club and did not pay your check" (this was a lady with whom I had regular dances, etc )"
Zont "Be right there - sorry!"
Hang up - think fast....
Mrs Zont "What was that about?"
Zont - "Left my credit card at the restaurant - will run back at get it now before they close, lock it up somewhere, and then they can't find it when I go to get it tomorrow - don't wait up!"
Was not a complete lie - my lady friend and I did have a nice dinner there.
My lady friend still likes to remind me about that one.
