Ceremonies

"Ceremonies"*

*Ken and Melba had finished their breakfast
at the retirement home and were relaxing in the library.

"You know," said Melba, "today, in most
marriage ceremonies, they don't use the
word 'obey' anymore."

"Too bad, isn't it?" retorted Ken. "It used
to lend a little humor to the occasion."

*"Cough, Cough"*

On a lonely, moonlit country road a young man's
car engine started to cough. Immediately pulling
over to a scenic little spot he said to the young
lady next to him, "That's funny, I wonder what
that knocking noise was?"

"I'll tell you one thing for sure," said the girl coolly,

"It wasn't opportunity."
