An elderly gent was invited to an old friend's home
for dinner one evening. He was impressed by the way his
buddy preceded every request to his wife with endearing
terms such as: Honey, My Love, Darling, Sweetheart,
Pumpkin, etc. The couple had been married almost 70 years
and, clearly, they were still very much in love.
While the wife was in the kitchen, the man leaned over to
his host, "I think it's wonderful that, after all
these years, you still call your wife those loving pet
names." The old man hung his head. "I have to tell
you the truth," he said, "Her name slipped my mind
about 10 years ago and I'm scared to death to ask the
old bitch what it is.
