THE 84 YEAR-OLD BRIDE
The local news station was interviewing an 84-year old lady because she had just gotten married - for the fourth time.
The interviewer then asked her questions about her life, about what it felt like to be married again at 84, 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 about her first three husbands and what they did for a living.
She paused for a few moments needing to reflect on all those years.
After a short time a smile came to her face and she answered proudly, explaining that she first married a banker when she was in her early 20's, a circus ringmaster when she was in her 40's, later on 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 her why she had married four men with such diverse carreers.
"Easy son", she smiled. I married one for the money.... two for the show.... three to get ready..... and four to go!
