Hi everyone, this is a very short story I liked it I hope you'll enjoy it
A couple in their 90's are having problems remembering things, so
they decide to the go to the :(16):doctor for a checkup.
The doctor tells them that they are physically okay, but they might
want to start writing things down to help them remember.
Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from his
chair. His wife asks, "Where are you going?"
"To the kitchen," he replies.
She asks, "Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?"
The husband says, "Sure."
She gently reminds him, "Don't you think you should write it down so
you can remember it?"
He says, "No, I can remember that.
She then says, "Well, I'd like some strawberries on top. You'd better
write it down 'cause I know you'll forget it."
He says, "I can remember that! You want a bowl of ice cream with
strawberries."
She adds, "I'd also like whipped cream. Now I'm certain you'll forget
that, so you'd better write it down."
Irritated, he says, "I don't need to write it down! I can remember
that! Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream!"
He grumbles and then heads into the kitchen.
After about 20 minutes the old man returns from the kitchen and hands
his wife a plate of bacon and eggs.
She stares at the plate for a moment and says, "Where's my toast?"
