What marriage is really all about.

What marriage is really all about. . . .

He ordered one hamburger, one order of French fries and one
drink. The old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and
carefully cut it in half. He placed 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 kept looking over
and whispering. You could tell 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. He politely offered to buy another meal for the old
couple. The old man said they were just fine--they were used
to sharing everything.

The surrounding people 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.'

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're waiting for?'

She answered . . . 'THE TEETH.'
