such a night

from ' Playboy's Party Jokes' in 'The Bedside Playboy', originally published in 1953

"Are you sure this is your house?" the cop asked the thoruoughly sozzled gentleman.
  "Shertainly," said the drunk, "and if you'll jush open the door f'me, I'll prove it you"
  "You shee that piano?" the drunk began. "Thash mine.You shee that television set. Thash mine, too. Follow me, follow me."
  The police office followed as he shakily negotiated the stairs to the second floor. The drunk pushed the first door they came to.
  "Thish ish my bedroom," he announced. "Shee that bed? Thash my bed. Shee that woman lying in the bed? Thash my wife. An' shee that guy lying next to her?"
  "Yeah," said the cop suspiciously.
  "Thash me!"
