A man is at work one day when he notices that his co-worker is wearing an earring.

This man knows his co-worker to be a normally conservative fellow, and is curious

about his sudden change in "fashion sense".

So, he says, "I didn't know you were into earrings."

"Don't make such a big deal, it's only an earring," the co-worker replies sheepishly.

His friend falls silent for a few minutes, but then his curiosity prods him to say,

"So, how long have you been wearing one?"

"Ever since my wife found it in my truck."
