Matter of fact I believe it was Barbara's parents that first brought
up the notion of me and her getting married. (I was a young man
and I had some notions all my own, but they weren't exactly about
getting married.)

Barb was getting on near to being 18. Womam sized and done full
growed, they said. (Between me and you, them people was purely
lying to me. Full growed? The woman has done growed about three
times big as she was back then. An' I think she is still growing, some.)

But like I said, it was her parents that first brought up this here a-ranged
marriage thing. They know once a girl gets to being 18, it's pretty much
downhill on the marriage thing for them.

So they was willing to pay me a pretty good sum.



Spook....who didn't charge enough, in hindsight.

Spook! Your in Ohio too.

Cause I iz.

Yeah, Spook is in Ohio. Everybody's gotta live somewhere.
Wanted to move to to Califorina one time, but got to studying
on it. If we all went to coast at once, I was afraid we would tip
the United States over, and we would all fall in the water.

Spook can't swim.

So I promised myself I would live in the middle.

It's safer.

Completely safe here.

"where I am, we get no tornados or hurricanes or anything like that. Completely safe here."


Then how 'bout I send my wife up there so she will be safer?


Spook...that works for Spook

Okay Ducky, this one is for you. Pay attention to your elders.
They have a plan...


The local news station was interviewing an 80-year-old lady
because she had just gotten married -- for the fourth time.

The interviewer asked her questions about her life.

About what it felt like to be marrying again at 80.
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 a little
about her first three husbands and what they did for a living.

She paused for a few moments, needing time to reflect on all
those years.

After a short time, a smile came to her face and she answered
proudly, explaining that:

She'd first married a banker when she was in her early 20's.

Then a circus ringmaster when 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 why
she had married four men with such diverse careers.

She smiled and explained......

"I married one for the money, two for the show,
three to get ready, and four to go."
