Found for Friday

 I was visiting a friend at a retirement center a few days ago. While there I met an older lady whom I’d judge to be in her mid-eighties.  As we chatted, she told me she was very excited and very busy because  she was going to be married the next week.  For the fourth time.

I told her that was wonderful news.  But then I asked why, after three previous marriages and at her age, she wanted to get married again.

“Well,” she said, “ I just like the companionship of being married.  And I figure age isn’t a big deal.  My fiancé is a funeral director, by the way.”

“That’s interesting,” I said.  “Just out of curiosity, what did your previous husbands do?”

She thought a moment, and then said, “The first one was a banker, and a wonderful man.  The second was the ringmaster for a circus, believe it or not.  And the third was a travel agent who planned luxury vacations for people.”

“Fascinating!” I said.  But how did you come to marry such different people?”

“It’s like this,” she replied.  “I always followed the old rule: one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, and four to go.

It's hard to explain puns to kleptomaniacs because they always take things literally.
