Abe and Esther are flying to Australia for a two-week vacation to
celebrate their 40th anniversary.
Suddenly, over the public address system, the Captain announces,
'Ladies and Gentlemen, I am afraid I have some very bad news. Our engines
have ceased functioning, and we will attempt an emergency landing.
Luckily, I see an uncharted island below us and we should be able to land on
the beach. However, the odds are that we may never be rescued and will
have to live on the island for the rest of our lives!'
Thanks to the skill of the flight crew, the plane lands safely on the
island.
An hour later Abe turns to his wife and asks, 'Esther, did we pay
our $5,000 PBS pledge check yet?' 'No, sweetheart,' she responds.
Abe, still shaken from the crash landing, then asks, 'Esther, did
we pay our American Express card yet?' 'Oh, no! I'm sorry. I forgot to
send the check,' she says.
'One last thing, Esther. Did you remember to send checks for the
Visa and MasterCard this month?' he asks. 'Oh, forgive me, Abe,' begged
Esther. 'I didn't send those, either.'
Abe grabs her and gives her the biggest kiss in 40 years. Esther
pulls away and asks him, 'So, why did you kiss me?'
Abe answers, 'They'll find us!'
