Sometimes Elderly Couples Can Be So Funny

Tweet

I used to work in a grocery store and every friday there was this really cute elderly couple come to shop. They had a cart and the woman would pick something up and put it in the cart and walk on down the aisle. The man would take it out of the cart and put in back on the shelf. He never put it back where it went. He just set it up. The man would pick something up and put it in the cart, the woman would wait till the man was doing something else then she would take the item that he put in the cart and set it back on the shelf. We had survellence cameras installed all over the store and we had a monoter in the area where I worked. We could watch the shoppers. We always got such a kick out of watching this couple shop. They had a list and it seems that they always had food in the cart when they were finished. It would be so funny, the older lady would get almost up the cash register and she would read off the list and the elderly man would check in the cart. I often wondered why they did not argue or if they even knew that hte other one was putting the food back on the shelf. They did this same ritual every friday. LOL The above is a true story. I was reminded of it when my daughter sent the story below to me in my email. I laughed so hard and it just reminded me of that elderl couple that came to the store each friday. I hope you enjoy both stories. LOL Morris and his wife Esther went to the state fair every year, and every year Morris would say, "Esther, I'd like to ride in that helicopter." Esther always replied, "I know Morris, but that helicopter ride is fifty dollars, and fifty dollars is fifty dollars." One year Esther and Morris went to the fair, and Morris said, "Esther, I'm 85 years old. If I don't ride that helicopter, I might never get another chance." To this, Esther replied, "Morris, that helicopter is fifty dollars, and fifty dollars is fifty dollars." The pilot overheard the couple and said, "Folks, I'll make you a deal. I'll take the both of you for a ride. If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say a word, I won't charge you! But if you say one word, it's fifty dollars." Morris and Esther agreed and up they went. The pilot did all kinds of fancy maneuvers, but not a word was heard. He did his daredevil tricks over and over again, but still not a word. When they landed, the pilot turned to Morris and said, "By golly, I did everything I could to get you to yell out, but you didn't. I'm impressed!" Morris replied, "Well, to tell you the truth, I almost said something when Esther fell out, but you know, fifty dollars is fifty dollars."
