Abie, a rather shy and retiring gentleman who lives a southwest, sent this
one on a woman's fourth marriage...

A woman who had been married three times walked into a bridal shop one
day and told the sales clerk that she was looking for a wedding gown for
her fourth wedding.

"Of course, madam," replied the sales clerk, "exactly what type and color
dress are you looking for?"

The bride to be responded: "A long frilly white dress with a veil."

The sales clerk hesitated a bit, then said, "Please don't take this the wrong
way, but gowns of that nature are considered more appropriate for brides
who are being married the first time - for those who are a bit more innocent,
if you know what I mean? Perhaps ivory or sky blue would be nice?"

"Well," replied the bride to be, a little peeved at the clerk's directness, "I can
assure you that a white gown would be quite appropriate. Believe it or not,
despite all my marriages, I remain as innocent as a first-time bride."

Pausing a moment, she continued: "You see, my first husband was so excited
about our wedding, he died as we were checking into our hotel. My second
husband and I got into such a terrible fight in the limo on our way to our
honeymoon that we had that wedding annulled immediately and have never
spoken to each other since."

"What about your third husband?" asked the sales clerk.

"That one was a Democrat," said the bride to be, "and every night for four
years, he just sat on the edge of the bed and told me how good it was going
to be, but nothing ever happened."
