A married couple in their early 60s was celebrating their 40th
wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant.
Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table. She
said, 'For being such an exemplary married couple and for being
loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a
wish.'
The wife answered, 'Oh, I want to travel around the world with my
darling husband'. The fairy waved her magic wand and - poof! - two
tickets for the Queen Mary II appeared in her hands.
The husband thought for a moment: 'Well, this is all very romantic,
but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry my
love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me'.
The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a
wish. So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof!...the husband
became 92 years old.
The moral of this story: Men who are ungrateful jerks should remember
fairies are female!
