Red Skelton’s Recipe for the Perfect Marriage

PRICELESS….For those of you old enough to remember Red Skelton, I think you will enjoy this .   For those of you not old enough, you will see what you missed.  Either way, his humor was always clean and he was a great entertainer.  A rerun of great one liners from the man who was known for his clean humor. I hope you get a chuckle or two reading them once more.

 1. Two times a week we go to a nice restaurant, have a little beverage, good food and companionship: she goes on Tuesdays; I go on Fridays.

2. We also sleep in separate beds: hers is in California, mine is in Texas.

3. I take my wife everywhere…but she keeps finding her way back.

4. I asked my wife where she wanted to go for our anniversary. “Somewhere I haven’t been in a long time!” she said. So I suggested the kitchen.

5. We always hold hands. If I let go, she shops.

6. She has an electric blender, electric toaster and electric bread maker. She said “There are too many gadgets, and no place to sit down!” So I bought her an electric chair.

7. My wife told me the car wasn’t running well because there was water in the carburetor. I asked where the car was. She told me, “In the lake.”

8. She got a mud pack, and looked great for two days. Then the mud fell off.

9. She ran after the garbage truck, yelling, “Am I too late for the garbage?” The driver said, “No, jump in!”

10. Remember: Marriage is the number one cause of divorce.

11. I married Miss Right. I just didn’t know her first name was Always.

12. I haven’t spoken to my wife in 18 months I don’t like to interrupt her.

13. The last fight was my fault though. My wife asked, “What’s on the TV?” I said, “Dust!’”

The real recepie for perfect marriages,.....

In 2006 we went on a vacation to the honeymoon capitol of the world, Hawaii. We attended a luau at the King Kamehameha hotel. The Master of Ceremony got on stage and asked all the newlyweds to come up. There were couples there married two days, two weeks, two months and so on. Then he searched the audience for the couple married the longest and found a couple married 60 years. He took his cordless micraphone and ran out the them.

He asked the wife to tell the new brides the secret to being married so long. This lovely octagenarian went into this whole Khalil Gibran thing about being close but not too close, giving love and respect to the other and having love and respect for yourself, and to remember that a strong marriage takes more than love. She said it takes work, time, and commitment. It was beautiful, the place was silent and there was not a dry eye in the house.

Then the MC asked the husband to tell the new bridegrooms the secret to being married 60 years. The old man slowly stood up, leaned into the micraphone and and said,........"Huh,.... whaddya say? Ah,....whatever my wife said is fine". All the married men in the audience busted out laughing. The secret to being happily married a long time is to turn off your hearing aid and just agree to whatever your wife says.

God it was funny. You can't make this stuff up.
