The little old couple walked slowly into McDonalds tha   
        An old couple that shares

 The little old couple walked slowly into McDonalds that cold winter
 evening. They looked out of place amid the young families and young
 couples eating there that night. Some of the customers looked
 admiringly at them. You could tell what the admirers were thinking.

 "Look, there is a couple who has been through a lot together,
 probably for 60 years or more!"
 
 The little old man walked right up to the cash register, placed his
 order with no hesitation and then paid for their meal. The couple
 took  a table near the back wall and started taking food off of the tray.
 There was one hamburger, one order of french fries and one drink.
 
 The little old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it
 in  half. He placed one half in front of his wife. Then he carefully
 counted out the french fries, divided them in two piles and neatly
 placed one pile in front of his wife. He took a sip of the drink,
 his  wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them.
 
 As the man began to eat his few bites of hamburger the crowd began to
  get restless. Again you could tell what they were thinking. "That
 poor  old couple. All they can afford is one meal for the two of them."

 As the man began to eat his french fries one young man stood and came
 over  to the the old couples table. He politely offered to buy another
 meal for the old couple to eat. The old man replied that they were just
 fine. They were used to sharing everything.
 
 Then the crowd noticed that the little old lady hadn't eaten a bite.
 She just sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking
 turns sipping the drink. Again the young man came over and begged
 them  to let him buy them something to eat. This time the lady explained
 that  no, they were used to sharing everything together.
 
 As the little old man finished eating and was wiping his face neatly
 with a napkin the young man could stand it no longer. Again he came
 over to their table and offered to buy some food. After being
 politely  refused again he finally asked a question of the little old lady.
 "Maam, why aren't you eating. You said that you share everything.
 What is it that you are waiting for?"
 
 She answered, "the teeth".
