40 yr anniversary

A man and a woman were married for 40 years. When they first got married

the man said, "I am putting a box under the bed. You must promise never

to look in it." In all their 40 years of marriage the woman never

looked.

However on the afternoon of their 40th anniversary curiosity got the

best of her and she lifted the lid and peeked inside. In the box were 3

empty beer bottles and $1954.25 in small bills. She closed the box and

put it back under the bed. Now that she knew what was in the box, she

was doubly curious as to why.

That evening they were out for a special dinner at their favorite

restaurant. After dinner the woman could no longer contain her curiosity

and she confessed, saying, "I am so sorry. For all these years I kept my

promise and never looked. However today the temptation was too much and

I gave in. But now I need to know why do you keep the bottles in the

box?"

The man thought for a while and said, "I guess after all these wonderful

years you deserve to know the truth: Whenever I was unfaithful to you I

put an empty beer bottle in the box under the bed to remind myself not

to do it again."

The woman was shocked, but said, "I am very disappointed and saddened,

but I guess after all those years away from home on the road, temptation

does happen. And I guess that 3 times is not that bad considering the

years." They hugged and made their peace.

A little while later, the woman asked the man, "Why do you have all that

money in the box?" To which the man answered, "Whenever the box filled

with empties, I cashed them in."

Dude, that was WRONG, lol. But funny, nonetheless...;)
