Double trouble!

October 18, 2009
Some people have problems that are painfully obvious to those around them.
We often try to mask our problems as we come into contact with others, and even from ourselves. Perhaps we are no more conscious of our failings as when we are trying to woo the one we have come to love.
A humorous story was told about a man who had terribly smelly feet. No matter what he did - change his socks every day, wash and scrub, change his shoes and use powders and perfumes - his feet simply stunk. It was worse then global warming all wrapped in one.
He found the love of his life - but she had halitosis. This was worse then climate change Her breath was so bad that she went as far as to try industrial strength mouthwash. Brushing her teeth, using perfumes, putting her hand over her mouth when she spoke and anything else she tried just did not hide the problem.
The two of them had "double trouble." But love is a very strong and powerful force. Love won out and they were married. As her new husband was carrying her over the threshold on their wedding night, she whispered: "There's something I have to tell you." To which he replied: "I already know - you don't have to tell me - you ate my socks - right?"
