• The Honeymoon Is Over

    From Daryl Stout@1:19/33 to All on Sat Jul 25 00:05:49 2020
    A couple was approaching their 50th wedding anniversary. The husband
    was looking around the house to find something to give his wife for
    their golden wedding anniversary. She told him that "her closet was
    off limits", to which he said "fine".

    Well, he had looked everywhere, but couldn't find a thing he thought
    she'd like. So, he decided to go ahead and look in his wifes closet,
    anyway.

    Upon inspection, he noted two shoeboxes. He took the lid off one of
    them and found two eggs...like what you'd break open and fry or scramble
    up for breakfast. He thought "what in the world??".

    He opened the second box, and it was chock full of money...$1500 to
    be exact!! He reasoned "I'm going to get to the bottom of this".

    When his wife got home, he confronted her with what he found, and
    asked "OK, honey...what's the big idea?".

    She confessed that every time she had been unfaithful to him in their
    50 years of marriage, that she put an egg in the box.

    Her husband didn't mind that at all...twice unfaithful in 50 years.
    But, when he asked her to explain all the money, she replied "Every
    time I got a dozen eggs, I sold them for a dollar!!".
