A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary on the beach in
Montego Bay, Jamaica. Their domestic tranquility had long been the talk of
the town.
“What a peaceful & loving couple”.
A local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their long and
happy marriage.
“Well, it dates back to our honeymoon in America,” explained the man. "We
visited the Grand Canyon in Arizona and took a trip down to the bottom of
the canyon by horse. We hadn’t gone too far when my wife’s horse stumbled
and she almost fell off. My wife looked down at the horse and quietly
said,
“That’s once.”
We proceeded a little further and the horse stumbled again, this time
causing her to drop her water. Once more my wife quietly said, “That’s
twice.”
We hadn’t gone a half-mile when the horse stumbled for a third time. My
wife
quietly removed a revolver from her purse and shot the horse dead.
I shouted at her, “What’s wrong with you, Woman! Why did you shoot the poor
animal like that? Are you crazy??”
She looked at me, and quietly said, “That’s once.”
“And from that moment we have lived happily ever after”.
