Old Couple Sharing A Meal

An old man ordered a hamburger, a fries and a drink. The old man un-wrapped the hamburger and carefully cut it in half. He placed one-half in front of his wife. Then, he carefully counted the fries, dividing the fries into two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife. Every time the old man took a sip of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them.

As the old man began eating his few bites of hamburger, the people around them kept looking over and whispering. You could tell 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. He politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple. The old man said they were just fine - They were used to sharing everything.

The surrounding people 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 came over and begged them to let him buy another meal for them. This time the old woman said, "No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything."

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"
