A man and woman where on their honeymoon
after a long and very happy courtship. On their honeymoon, they decide
to
take their horses through the beautiful mountain passes of
Europe. As
the horses were crossing a small stream, the woman's horse
mis-steps and
jostles the man's wife. Once across the stream, the
man dismounts,
walks over to the horse, and stares into its eyes.
Finally, he states,
"That's one." The man remounts his horse and
they continue their ride.
A bit further down the path, the woman's
horse stumbles when stepping
over a fallen tree. The man dismounts,
stares the horse in the eyes,
and boldly states, "That's two!" He
returns to his saddle and they
move on.
As the afternoon sun
began to set, the woman's horse once again lost
its footing on a
mossy slope. The man dismounts, moves to the woman's
horse, and
helps his wife out of the saddle the man. Moving to the front
o
f the horse he stares it in the eyes and firmly says, "That's
three," removes a pistol from his vest, and shots the horse
dead.
The woman, quite upset at seeing the beautiful horse killed, says to
her husband, "That's terrible, why would you do such a
thing!"
The man stares at his wife and firmly says, "That's one!" |
