Wedding Present

"Historical"

A man complains to a friend, "I can't take it
anymore."

"What's wrong?" his concerned friend asks.

"It's my wife. Every time we have an argument,
she gets historical!"

"You mean hysterical," his friend said,
chuckling.

"No, I mean HISTORICAL," the man insists.

"Wedding Present"

Five years after my wife, Bridgid, and I were
married, we received our final wedding gift -
- an ice-cream maker. In an attempt to cover
procrastination with humor, the friend who
sent it included a note: "I wanted to make
sure the marriage would last."

Bridgid wasn't amused, but she thought the
present deserved a thank-you note anyway,
which she dutifully sent five years later.

Her note read: "I wanted to be sure the
ice-cream maker would last."
