Golden wedding anniversary

[Mr. P]

A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary on the beach

in Montego Bay, Jamaica. Their domestic tranquility had long been the

talk of the town. "What a peaceful & loving couple". A local newspaper

reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their long and happy

marriage.

"Well, it dates back to our honeymoon in America," explained the man.

"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 the horse stumbled again, this time causing her to drop her water.

Once more my wife quietly said, "That's twice." We hadn't gone a

half-mile when the horse stumbled for a 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 we have lived happily ever after."
