Bless em.... A little old couple walked slowly into a McDonalds one cold winter >evening. They looked out of place amid the young families and young >couples eating there that night. Some of the customers looked admiringly at them. >You could tell what the admirers were thinking. "Look, there is a >couple who has been through a lot together, probably for 60 years or more!" > >The little old man walked up to the cash register and placed his order >with no hesitation, and then paid for their meal. > >The couple took a table near the back wall and started taking food off >of the tray. There was one hamburger, one order of French fries and >one drink. The little old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and >carefully cut it in half. He placed one half in front of his wife. Then >he carefully counted out the French fries, divided them in two piles >and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife. He took a sip of the >drink, and then his wife took a sip as the man began to eat his few >bites. Again, you could tell what people around the old couple were >thinking. "That poor old couple." > >As the old man began eating his French fires, a young man stood up and >walked to the old couples table. He politely offered to buy another meal. >The old man replied that they were just fine. They were used to sharing >everything. > >Then the crowd noticed that the little old lady still hadn't eaten a thing. >She just sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally sipped >some of the drink. Again, the young man came over and begged them to >let him buy them another meal. > >This time, the lady explained that no, they were used to sharing. > >As the little old man finished eating and was wiping his face neatly >with a napkin, the young man could stand it no longer and asked again. > >After being politely refused again, he finally asked the little old >lady, "Ma'am, why aren't you eating. You said that you share >everything. What is it that you are waiting for?" > > > >She answered, > > > > >> > > > > >>[This is great - scroll down!] > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >> > > > > >>"The teeth."
