An elderly lady was invited to an old friends home
for dinner one evening.
She was impressed by the way her lady friend
preceded every request to her husband with
endearing terms such as: Honey, My Love, Darling,
Sweetheart, etc.
The couple had been married almost 70 years and,
clearly, they were still very much in love.
While the husband was in the living room, her lady
friend leaned over to her hostess to say, 'I think
it's wonderful that, after all these years, you
still call your husband all those loving names'.
The elderly lady hung her head. 'I have to tell
you the truth,' she said, 'his name slipped my
mind about 10 years ago, and I'm scared to death
to ask the cranky old asshole what his name is.'
