A woman awoke during the night to find that her husband was not in bed.
She put on her robe and went downstairs. He was sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in front of him. He appeared to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall.
She saw him wipe a tear from his eye and take a sip of his coffee.
"What's the matter, dear?", she whispered as she stepped into the room.
"Why are you down here at this time of night?" The husband looked up from his coffee.
"Do you remember 20 years ago when we were dating, and you were only 16?", he asked.
"Yes I do", she replied. The husband paused. The words were not coming easily. "Do you remember when your father caught us in the back seat of my car making love?"
Yes, I remember" said the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him. The
husband continued.. "Do you remember when he shoved the shotgun in my face and said, "Either you marry my daughter, or I'll send you to jail for 20 years?"
"I remember that too", she replied softly.
He wiped another tear from his cheek and said, "I would have gotten out today".

I'll match your oldie with another oldie.....

A husband and wife are shopping in their local mart.

The husband picks up a case of Fosters and puts it in their cart.

'What do you think you're doing?' asks the wife.

'They're on sale, only $10 for 24 bottles’ he replies.

'Put them back, we can't afford them’ demands the wife, and so they carry on shopping.

A few aisles further on the woman picks up a $20 jar of face cream and puts it in the basket.

‘What do you think you're doing?' asks the husband.

'It’s my face cream. It makes me look beautiful,' replies the wife.

Her husband retorts: 'So does a case of Fosters and it's half the price.'

so DEEP .. so WISE! I think !!
