Old age !

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, 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 the little old lady.
Then he carefully counted out the French fries, divided them in two piles
and neatly placed one pile in front of her.
He took a sip of the drink, and then she 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 to eat his French fries, one young man stood up and
came over 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 hadn't eaten a thing. She
just sat there watching him eat and occasionally sipped some of the drink.

Again, the young man came over and begged them to let him buy them
something to eat.
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, ...

"The teeth."

Enjoy Regards the MGW
