Her Four Husbands


The local news station was interviewing an

80-year-old lady because she had just gotten

married for the fourth time. The interviewer

asked her questions about her life, about

what it felt like to be marrying again at 80,

and then about her new husband's occupation.



"He's a funeral director," she answered.



"Interesting," the newsman thought.



He then asked her if she wouldn't mind telling

him a little about her first three husbands and

what they did for a living. She paused for a few

moments, needing time to reflect on all those

years. After a short time, a smile came to her

face and she answered proudly, explaining that

she had first married a banker when she was in

her 20's, then a circus ringmaster when in her

40's, and a preacher when in her 60's, and now

in her 80's - a funeral director.



The interviewer looked at her, quite astonished,

and asked why she had married four men with

such diverse careers.




(Wait for it)




She smiled and explained, "I married one for

the money, two for the show, three to get ready,

and four to go."



(Oh, just hush-up and send this one on to somebody

who needs a laugh.)
