She told him, "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the driveway that goes from 0-to-200 in under six seconds.  AND IT HAD BETTER BE THERE."

 

The next morning, Tom got up really early.   When his wife woke up a couple of hours later, she looked out the window, and there was a small, gift-wrapped box sitting in the middle of the driveway.

 

Confused but curious, the wife put on her robe, ran out to the driveway, and took the box into the house.  She opened it, and found … a brand new bathroom scale.

 

Tom is not yet well enough to have visitors.
