Elderly Couple Man vs. Woman / Back Home
George, age 92, and Edith, age 89, had
been seeing each other for 2
years when they decided that life was too short and they might as well be
together for the rest of their lives. Excited about their decision to
become
newlyweds, they went for a stroll to discuss the wedding and what plans
needed to be made.
Along their way, they found themselves in front of a drugstore.
George said to his bride-to-be, "Let's go in. I have an idea. They walk
to the rear of the store and address the man behind the counter:
"Are you the owner?" asked George.
The pharmacist answered, "Yes, sir, I am. How can I help you?"
George: "Do you sell heart medications?"
Pharmacist: "Of course we do."
George: "How about support hose for circulation?"
Pharmacist: "Definitely."
George: "What about medications for rheumatism, osteoporosis &
arthritis?"
Pharmacist: "All kinds."
George: "How about waterproof furniture pads & Depends?"
Pharmacist: "Yes sir."
George: "Hearing aids, denture supplies & reading glasses?"
Pharmacist: "Yes."
George: "What about eye drops, sleeping pills, Geritol, Preparation H
and ExLax?"
Pharmacist: "Absolutely."
George: "You sell wheelchairs, walkers & canes?"
Pharmacist: "All kinds and sizes. Why all these questions?"
George smiled, glanced shyly at Edith and replied to the pharmacist,
"We've decided to get married and we'd like to use your store as our
Bridal Registry."
