[nilesfunnies] Fw: GCF: Proposal

Two elderly people lived in Trailer Estates, a Florida mobile home park.
He was a widower, she a widow. They'd known each other for a number of
years.

One evening there was a special supper in the community center. The two
were at the same table, across from one another. As the meal went on, he
made a few admiring glances at her and finally gathered courage to ask
her, "Will you marry me?"

After about six seconds of 'careful consideration,' she answered.
"Yes. Yes, I will." The meal ended and, with a few more pleasant
exchanges, they went home to their respective abodes.

Next morning, he was troubled. "Did she say 'yes' or did she say
'no'?" He couldn't remember. Try as he would, he just could not
recall. Not even the faintest of memories. So with trepidation, he went
to the telephone and called her. First, he explained that he didn't
remember as well as he used to. Then he reviewed the lovely evening
past. As he gained a little more courage, he inquired, "When I asked if
you would marry me, did you say 'Yes' or did you say 'No'?"

He was delighted to hear her say, "Why, I said, 'Yes, yes I will' and
I meant it with all my heart." Then she continued, "And I am so glad
that you called, because I couldn't remember who'd actually asked me."
