[QUOTE="DaytonIllini, post: 409731"] Fred and Mary were married for 54 years. With Mary on her deathbed and Fred dutifully in attendance she whispered to him. "Fred, open my hope chest." Now Fred had never gone in the chest at the end of the bed throughout their marriage. He had always been faithful and respected her privacy. He opened the chest and found $400 and three ears of corn. "What is the corn doing in here Mary?" "Fred, as I approach the end, I have to be honest with you. Every time I cheated on you, I put an ear of corn in the chest." Fred was stunned and almost fell over from shock. All he could do was pace back and forth mumbling to himself. "She cheated on me? When? With whom? How could she?" After getting his bearings and realizing that Mary was dying he felt he better forgive her. "Mary, I forgive you for cheating on me. We had a good marriage and three times in 54 years is not too bad." "Thanks Fred. I wanted your forgiveness." "Mary, what's the $400 in the chest for." "Oh. Every time I got a bushel of corn in there I sold it and put the cash in the chest." :faint: [/QUOTE]
