The old man placed an order for one hamburger, French fries and a drink.
He unwrapped the plain hamburger and
carefully cut it in half, placing one half in front of his wife.
He then carefully counted out the French fries, dividing them into two
piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife.
He took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down
between them.... As he began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the people
around them were looking over and whispering.
Obviously they were thinking, 'That poor old couple - all they can afford is
one meal for the two of them.'
As the man began to eat his fries a young man came to the table and politely
offered to buy another meal for the old couple. The old man said, they were
just fine - they were used to sharing everything
People closer to the table noticed the little old lady hadn't eaten a bite.
She sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns
sipping the drink.
Again the young man begged them to let him buy them another meal.
This time the old woman said 'No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything..'
Finally, as the old man finished and was wiping his face neatly with the napkin,
the young man again came over to the little old lady who had yet to eat a single
bite of food and asked 'What is it you are waiting for?'
She answered:
'THE TEETH.'
