The Bottle Of Wine

 THE BOTTLE OF WINE


      For all of us who are married, were married, wish you were married, or wish you weren't married, this  is something to smile about the next time you see a bottle of wine:


Jack was driving home from one of his business trips in Northern Arizona when he saw an elderly Navajo man walking on the side of the road.
As the trip was a long and quiet one, he stopped the car and asked the Navajo man if he would like a ride. 
With a silent nod of thanks, the man got into the car. 
Resuming the journey, Jack tried in vain to make a bit of small talk with the Navajo man.
The old man just sat silently, looking intently at everything he saw, studying every little detail, until he noticed a brown bag on the seat next to Jack.
"What in bag?" asked the elder man.
Jack looked down at the brown bag and said, "It's a bottle of wine. I got it for my wife." 
The Navajo man was silent for another moment or  two. 
Then speaking with the quiet wisdom of an elder, he said: 

"Good trade."
 :*))



Its a typical situation in these typical times...

Agonizing over what cannot be is an insult to what is.

IMO = in my opinion
IMHO = in my humble opinion
PMSL. I'm guessing this means Pardon My Silent Laughter, but I could be wrong.
