The sharing of marriage.
The sharing of marriage...
The old man placed order for one hamburger, French fries and a drink.
He unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half, placing one
half in front of his wife.
He then carefully counted out the French fries, dividing them into two
piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife.
He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down
between them . As he began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the people
around them were looking over and whispering.
Obviously they were thinking, 'That poor old couple - all they can afford
is one meal for the two of them.'
As the man began to eat his fries a young man came to the table and
politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple. The old man said,
they were just fine - they always shared everything.
People closer to the table noticed the little old lady hadn't eaten a
bite. She sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns
sipping the drink.
Again, the young man came over and begged them to let him buy another meal
for them. This time the old woman said 'No, thank you, we are used to
sharing everything.'
Finally, as the old man finished and was wiping his face neatly with the
napkin, the young man again came over to the little old lady who had yet to
eat a single bite of food and asked 'What is it you are waiting for?'
She answered .....
'THE TEETH.'

There is no use focusing on aiming if you don't execute the shot well enough to hit what your are aiming at.

Lately, if life were treating me any better, I'd be suspicious of it's motives!

I can sort of see that one. I will not be eating my favourite staple item, hamburgers for a while with that thought/image burned into my mind's eye.
