An old man tottered into a lawyer''s offi
ce and asked for help in arranging a divor
ce. "A divor
ce?" asked the unbelieving lawyer. "Tell me, how old are you?"
"I''m eighty-four, " answered the old man.
"Eighty-four! And how old is your wife?"
"My wife is eighty-one. "
"My, my," said the lawyer, "And how long have you been married?"
"Next September we will
complete sixty-two years."
"Married for sixty-two years?! Why would you want a divor
ce now?"
"Be
cause," the man answered
calmly, "enough is enough."
