When Bill & Hillary first got married, Bill said, "I'm putting a box under
the bed. You must promise never to look in it."
In all their thirty years of marriage, Hillary never looked. However, on
the afternoon of their 30th anniversary, curiosity got the best of her and
she lifted the lid and peeked inside.
In the box were three empty beer cans and $81,874.25 in cash. She closed
the box and put it back under the bed. Now that she knew what was in the
box, she was doubly curious as to why there even was such a box with such
strange contents. That evening they went out for a special anniversary
dinner.
After dinner, Hillary could no longer contain her curiosity and she
confessed, saying, "I'm so sorry. For all these years I kept my promise
and
never looked into the box under our bed. However, today the temptation
was
too much and I gave in. But now I need to know, why do you keep the 3
beer
cans in the box?"
Bill thought for a while and said, "I guess after all these years you
deserve to know the truth. Whenever I was unfaithful to you, I put an
empty
beer can in the box under the bed to remind myself not to do it again."
Hillary was shocked, but said "Hmmm... Jennifer, Paula and Monica. I am
very disappointed and saddened by your behavior. However, since you are
addicted to sex, I guess it does happen and guess three times is not that
bad considering your problem."
Bill thanked her for being so understanding. They hugged and made their
peace. A little while later Hillary asked Bill, "So why do you have all
that money in the box?"
Bill answered, "Well, whenever the box filled up with empty beer cans, I
took them to the recycling center and redeemed them for cash!"
