Regardless of one's age, you simply should always plan ahead

#1 Postby angelwing » Mon Dec 10, 2007 10:55 am

The local news station was interviewing an 80-year-old lady because she had just gotten married -- for the fourth time.

The interviewer asked her questions about her life, about what it felt
like to be marrying again at 80, and then about her new husband's occupation.

"He's a funeral director," she answered.

"Interesting," the newsman thought. He then asked her if she wouldn't mind telling him a little about her first three husbands and what they did for a living.

She paused for a few moments, needing time to reflect on all those years.
After a short time, a smile came to her face and she answered proudly, explaining that she'd first married a banker when she was in her early 20's, then a circus ringmaster when in her 40's, later on a preacher when in her 60's, and now in her 80's, a funeral di rector.

The interviewer looked at her, quite astonished, and asked why she had married four men with such diverse careers.

She smiled and explained, "I married one for the money, two for the show,three to get ready, and four to go."

:lol: Good one!

Hmmm, maybe so that she'll be BOUND to me, I'll start out as a banker, then become a circus ringmaster, then switch to a preacher, and finally before I die, become a funeral director. ;)

Like the idea?
