That's Once
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary on the
beaches in Gold Coast Australia. Their domestic tranquility had long
been the talk of the town. People would say, 'What a peaceful &
loving couple.' The local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the
secret of their long and happy marriage.
The husband replied: 'Well, it dates back to our honeymoon in
America '. We visited the Grand Canyon, in Arizona , and took a trip
down to the bottom of the canyon, by horse. We hadn't gone too far
when my wife's horse stumbled and she almost fell off. My wife
looked down at the horse and quietly said, 'That's once.' 'We
proceeded a little further and her horse stumbled again.. Again my
wife quietly said, 'That's twice.' We hadn't gone a half-mile when
the horse stumbled for the third time my wife quietly removed a
revolver from her Purse and shot the horse dead.
I SHOUTED at her, 'What's wrong with you, Woman! Why did you shoot
the poor animal like that, are you $%#@! crazy?' She looked at ME,
and quietly said, 'That's once.'
And from that moment on.... We have lived happily ever after.'
