Old age
An elderly couple, who were both widowed, had been going out with each other for a long time.
Urged on by their friends, they decided it was finally time to get married.

Before the wedding, they went out to dinner and had a long conversation regarding how their marriage might work.
They discussed finances, living arrangements and so on.

Finally, the old gentleman decided it was time to broach the subject of their physical relationship.

'How do you feel about sex?' he asked, rather tentatively.
'I would like it infrequently' she replied.

The old gentleman sat quietly for a moment, adjusted his glasses, leaned over towards her and whispered -
 
'Is that one word or two?'

Re: Old age
....one thing that you can be sure of is that your English is a lot better then my Spanish. One of my few regrets is that I never learned another language. I did a few in School but have forgotton everthing. When I've travelled to Asia or Europe it's always struck me how presumptous it must appear when, after struggling ineptly with a phrase book of the local language, I inevitably revert to English talking in a loud and slow manner hoping that they will understand
 
...(and they usually do).

Re: Old age
Everybody knows a bit of english...anywhere.
 
I think the joke is GREAT because its humor is very refined...it was not necessary to use harsh words or dubious images to deal with a such delicate matter as normaly with sex jokes... I always tell a good one on my saturday round of golf with my buddies. Unfortunally this one will lack of the last punch since the last and key word is exclusive of english language..
 
keep it posting them...please.

Re: Old age
I traveled to Luxembourg many, many years ago. When I arrived in the airport I was shocked when I realized I was, in a very short time, totally illiterate. I could neither read nor write.
 
The most embarrassing thing was when I didn't know if I was mench or a frau My father-in-law had to take me to the bathroom.
 
I have never traveled abroad since and that was in the early 70s..
