Sharing Is Wonderful

The scene is an elderly couple in Micky D's


He ordered one hamburger, one order of French
fries and one drink.

The old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and
carefully cut it in half. He placed one half in
front of his wife.He then carefully counted out
the French fries, dividing them into two piles
and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife.

He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip
and then set the cup down between them. As he
began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the people
around them kept looking over andwhispering.
You could tell they were thinking, "That poor
old couple - all they can afford is one meal for the
two of them."

As the man began to eat his fries a young man
came to the table. He politely offered to buy another
meal for theold couple.

The old man said they were just fine - They were used to
sharing everything.

The surrounding people noticed the little old
lady hadn't eaten a bite. She s at there watching her
husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink.

Again the young man came over and begged them to
let him buy another meal for them. This time the old woman
said "No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything."

As the old man finished and was wiping his face
neatly with the napkin, the young man again came over to the
little old lady who had yet to eat a single bite of food and
asked "What is it you are waiting for?"

She answered "THE TEETH."
