A lady walks into a drug store and tells the pharmacist that she needs some cyanide.
The pharmacist was startled at the request. "Why in the world do you need cyanide?" he asked.
The lady explained she needed it to poison her husband.
The pharmacist's eyes got big and he said, "Lord have mercy, I can't give you cyanide to kill your husband! That's against the law! I'll lose my license and they'll throw us both in jail and all kinds of bad things will happen! Absolutely not! You can not have any cyanide!
So the lady reached into her purse and pulled out a private detective's photograph of her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife.
The pharmacist looked at the photo very carefully and in a lowered voice replied, "Oh. Why didn't you say you had a prescription?"
