This old Italian man won the lottery. He has a new house built and decorated. He tells the decorator he wants a "Halo, statue" in every room. On reveal day, each room has a small statue of an angel. The old man is mad, "I wanna halo statue in every room!!" and stalks out. The angels are replaced with slightly larger statues of saints. Again, the old man is not happy, "No No NO, a halo statue in every room" and stomps out. The saints are replaced with statues of the Virgin Mary and Jesus. Again, the old man is not satisfied ' I saida I wanna halo statue in every room, what's wrong with you?" Exasperated the designer asks what kind of halo statue. "You know, it goes ring ring, you pick it up and say "Halo, statue?"

This and several other inside jokes always make the DW and I smile.
