Sam and Becky are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary..
Sam said to Becky (imagine a Yiddish accent), "So, Becky, I was
wondering,
...have you ever cheated on me?"
Becky replied, "Oh Sam, why would you ask such a question now?
You don't want to ask that question..."
"Yes, Becky, I really want to know. Please..."
"Well, all right, three times..."
"Three, hmmm, well when were they?"
"Well, Sam, remember when you were 35 years old and you really wanted
to start the business on your own and no bank would give you a loan...
Remember, then one day the bank president himself came over to the
house and signed the loan papers, no questions asked...Well..."
"Oh, Becky, you did that for me! I respect you even more than ever,
to do such a thing for me.... So when was number two?"
"Well, Sam, remember when you had that last heart attack and you were
needing that very tricky operation, and no surgeon wanted to touch
you... Then remember how Dr. DeBakey came all the way up here to do
the surgery himself and care for you until you were in good shape
again... Well...."
"Oh my god!! Becky, you should do such a thing for me, to save my
life... I couldn't have a more wonderful wife... To do such a thing,
oy vay, you must really love me darling... I couldn't be more
moved... So, all right then, when was number three?"
"Well, Sam, remember a few years ago, when you really wanted to be
president of the congregation.... And you were 47 votes short...."
