A
woman who had been married three times walked into a bridal shop one
day and told the sales clerk that she was looking for a wedding gown
for her fourth wedding.
"Of
course, madam," replied the sales clerk, "exactly what type and color
dress are you looking for?"
The
bride to be said, "A long frilly white dress with a veil."
The
sales clerk hesitated a bit, then said, "Please don't take this the
wrong way, but gowns of that nature are considered more appropriate for
brides who are being married the first time - for those who are a bit
more innocent, if you know what I mean? Perhaps ivory or sky blue would
be nice?"
"Well,"
replied the customer, a little peeved at the clerk's
directness, "I can assure you that a white gown would be quite
appropriate. Believe it or not, despite all my marriages, I remain as
innocent as a first-time bride. You see, my first husband was so
excited about our wedding, he died as we were checking into our honey
moon hotel. My second husband and I got into such a terrible fight in
the limo on our way to our honeymoon hotel that we had that wedding
annulled immediately and never spoke to each other again."
"What
about your third husband?" asked the sales clerk.
"That
one was a Democrat," said the woman, "and every night for four
years, he just sat on the edge of the bed and told me how good it was
going to be, but nothing ever happened.
