Hello to all! Are any of you short story buffs able to identify and name the author of and/or a possible source for a short story called "The Dinner Party"? A teacher at my school says it is about a couple arguing over whether men or women have more self control. Evidently during their dinner, a servant realizes a cobra is loose in the house and entices it to the porch with a bowl of milk. The man reveals that he knew about the cobra by observing the servant's actions; the woman says she knew because the cobra slithered over her foot. Does this sound familiar to any one? Thanks in advance to all who respond! Debby Klug dklug@hightechnet.gatech.edu
