The Fairy Godmother

A married couple in their early sixties were celebrating their fortieth wedding anniversary in a romantic restaurant. Suddenly a fairy godmother appeared.

She said, "For being such an exemplary married couple, I will grant you each a wish."

The wife answered, "I want to travel around the world with my darling husband."

The fairy waved her magic wand and POOF!- two tickets for the Queen Mary 2 appeared.

The husband thought for a moment, and then said, "Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry , sweetheart, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me."

The wife and the fairy were very deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish. So the fairy waved her magic wand and POOF!- the husband became 92 years old.

The moral of this story: Men who are ungrateful should remember that fairy godmothers are female.

This was nicked from Glamour Magazine, January 2011 edition, page 108. They got it from Katie Couric during a luncheon at the 2009 Women's Conference that was hosted by Maria Shriver. There were 14,000 witnesses to this joke.
