The Blonde Newlywed
 

The blonde newlywed goes to a divorce lawyer to say that she wants to divorce her new husband. The lawyer, far from the mercenary type, says that maybe they can work the problem out -- what's the problem?

"Well, it's kind of embarrassing," she says.

"It's that my husband is just so, well, big! Every time we make love, it really hurts."

The lawyer indeed doesn't see any real way to save the marriage, so he tells her, "Well, I guess you'll just have to file your petition, then."

The woman turns red and jumps to her feet.

"The hell I will!" she screams. "He'll have to sandpaper his!"

Heh. I appreciate that.

I'm missing something. Can someone break this joke down for me?

Petition = Partition?

I'm really lost..

file her petition -->she is thinking take a file (the tool) and make more room for her bigger husband, to which she replies "he can sandpaper his" (to make it smaller) :thumbsup:

I liked it. : )
