Three old ladies are sitting around a table playing bridge and bragging about their sons.
“My Freddie,” said Margaret, “Everyone should be so lucky to have a son like my Freddie.
Once a week he brings me a huge bouquet of flowers,
he’s constantly bringing me out to restaurants to eat, if I so much as hint that I want something
the next morning it’s on my doorstep.”
“That’s very nice about your Freddie”, says Gertrude. “But with all due respect, when I think about the
way my Sammy takes care of me, it just can’t compare. Every morning as soon as I wake up he greets me
with bacon and freshly brewed coffee. Every lunch he comes over and
cooks me a gourmet lunch, and every supper he brings me to his house for supper, he truly treats me like a queen.”
“WELL!” Says Barbara “I don’t want to make any of you feel bad or anything, but wait until you hear about my Harry,
twice a week he pays someone $200 an hour just so he can lie on their couch and talk to them, and who do you think
he speaks about at those prices? Asks Barbara with a big excited double chin smile, “I’ll tell you who he speaks about!
ALL HE SPEAKS ABOUT IS ME!”

“Sugar why don’t you sit down by the table and we’ll start supper.” Said Dorothy to her Husband of 50 years.
“Sure thing,” said her husband settling himself down.
“Now darling, would you like the soup first or the salad?” Questioned Dorothy.
“Umm I guess I’ll take the soup.” He responded.
After a whole meal of one endearing term after another, their guest Bob couldn’t contain his curiosity any longer.
Bob snuck into the kitchen and asked,
“Dorothy do you always talk to your husband like that?”
“Bob, I’ll be honest with you,” Dorothy replied. “It’s been five years now,
I just can’t remember his name, and I am just too embarrassed to ask him!”
