A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary.
Their  domestic tranquillity had  been the talk of the town.
A local  newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of
their long and  happy marriage.

We hadn't gone too far when my wife's mule stumbled.  My wife quietly said, "That's once."  We proceeded a little farther when the mule stumbled again. Once more my wife quietly said, "That's twice."  We hadn't gone a half-mile when the mule stumbled a third time.  My wife promptly remove  a revolver from her pocket and shot him.
 I started to protest over her treatment of the mule when she looked   at  me and quietly said,  "That's once".
