| A young man saw an elderly couple
sitting down to lunch at McDonald's. He noticed that they
had ordered one meal, and an extra drink cup. As he watched,
the gentleman carefully divided the hamburger in half, then
counted out the fries, one for him, one for her, until each
had half of them. Then he poured half of the soft drink
into the extra cup and set that in front of his wife. The
old man then began to eat, and his wife sat watching, with
her hands folded in her lap.
The young man decided to ask if they would allow him to
purchase another meal for them so that they didn't have
to split theirs.
The old gentleman said, "Oh no. We've been married
50 years, and everything has always been and will always
be shared, 50/50."
The young man then asked the wife if she was going to eat,
and she replied, "It's his turn with the teeth."
