Neck Scarf
There once was a girl who
always wore a scarf around here neck no matter what time of year it
was. One day while out on a date with her boyfriend, he said to her
"Take off your scarf." She replied, "No, I will take it off when the
time is right."
Years went by and the
couple became engaged to be married. On their wedding night, her new
husband again said to her, "We are married now so you can take off
your scarf." Again she said, "No, I will take it off when the time
is right."
More time passed and the
young couple grew old together. The old woman lay on her death bed
and addressed her weeping husband kneeling by her side. "I'm so
sorry to keep this secret from you for so long. Take off my scarf
and you'll see why I've always had it on."
Her husband took the end
of the scarf in his hand and slowly removed it from her neck.
Horrified, he watched his wife's head roll off the bed and across
the floor. She'd been wearing the scarf to keep her head on!
