Faites le calcul !
111 ans et je la tiens entre mes doigts .
And who said that people at the time were not funny ?
- I can explain !!!
- You , good for nothing husband ... I should have listened to my mother ...
- But your mother died twelve years ago !
- She was right at the time and she is still right now ...
- But she is dead !!
- At night , when you snore , full of wine , she comes to me and tells me that I should have listened and marry the Parson . But no ... I wanted that buggy ride ... but the ride has been going for too long now ...
- She comes to you at night ? You should stop that patented medecine doctor Slomow is giving you ... she said anything about the job ?
- Who ? What job ?
- My job ... will I be promoted ? It has been 9 years : it justifies a promotion . Your mother said something about my job ?
- She is not interested by your job ! Giving T-bars and Poma to rich teenagers is not a living ! We eat baked potatoes from Monday evening to Thursday , the day you bring your check . Nothing else ... it is a gift of God not to have children !
- Probably your mother ... she put a good word to the Power that be ...
- My mother would be the best grandmother ever if only we had children !
- But she is dead , your mother !!
- She could watch the kids at night , idiot ! That is what a dead mother is for ... now , give me your check so I can go to the grocery store ! Mac and Cheese is on sale by the box .
- Wwwweeell , you see , there was rhat display on the way from the hill ... two pairs of skis from the '90 ... and with bindings ... with bindings , you imagine ! It was the deal of a lifetime ...
- Tell me you did not buy two more pairs of sticks .................
- No scratches , no gouges , nothing ! A deal ... and one of those was 215 cm ... and the guy gave me a pair of poles !
- You have 25 pairs of skis in the bedroom ! I have to crawl over three of those to get into bed ...
- So comfy , the bed !
- Irresponsible ass ... don't try go get me into that bed ...
- Me , never , you know my style !
_ Go back to that peddler and get your money back !!! Don't come back without it ... and this evening , you sleep on the rug ... and not the plush one that my mother gave us for our marriage ... no ... the bare one at the entrance ...
- But .....
- AND DO IT QUICK TOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
