Does this sound fishy to you?
I was flipping through the radio channels this morning trying to get an idea of what traffic was going to be like (there were two fatal accidents in the Bay Area this morning) and ran across a radio show where a man (Pete) was vehemently accusing his wife (Alejandra) of having an affair as she was just as vehemently denying it.
The show does something sneaky in that they call a spouse and tell them they are being offered a free dozen roses as part of a promotion for a new local flower shop. They then tell you that you can have the flowers delivered to anyone in the Continental United States and they ask for the name of the person. After you give them the name, they ask for the message to put on the card.
Well in this episode, Alejandra was asked who she wanted to send the flowers to and she said she wanted to send them to Miguel with the message 'To my perrito. Looking forward to seeing you soon.' That is innocent enough. Except her husband's named is Pete. And Pete was on the phone to the radio station listening to this conversation setting Alejandra up.
When asked by Pete, her husband of seven years, who Miguel was Alejandra replied that it was her uncle. The husband had never heard of Uncle Miguel in his 7 years of marriage to Alejandra and asked where Tio Miguel lived. She said Mexico. Which was not really a possibility, since the flowers could only be delivered in the continental United States.
Oh yeah, her explanation for the nickname perrito... Her abuelo (grandfather, tio Miguel's daddy) was called 'Perro' back in the day and naturally his son would be called 'perrito'.
So do you think Alejandro is cheating on her husband Pete?
Yup, me too.
