Compliments for the wife (humor)

[npope]

I asked my wife what she wanted for Christmas. She said, "I want something bright & shiny that goes from 0 to 200 in about 3 seconds".

I bought her a bathroom scale.

I am still nursing the black eye.

Then she began feeling depressed about her aging-induced declining physical condition. There she was, standing nude, looking in the bedroom
mirror, obviously not happy with what she saw. Then said to me, "I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment.'

Thinking as fast as I could and wanting to say something positive to mitigate the depression, so I replied, "Your eyesight's Dang near perfect."

I never saw the lamp coming.

After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for
Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later.
The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'. So I opened my shirt revealing My curly silver hair. She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is Proof enough for me' and she processed my Social Security application.

When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office.
She said, 'You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten Disability, too.'
And then the fight started...

My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I
Kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table.
My wife asked, 'Do you know her?'
'Yes,' I sighed, 'She's my old girlfriend. I understand she took to
Drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she
Hasn't been sober since.'
'My God!' says my wife, 'who would think that a person could go on
Celebrating that long?'
And then the fight started...

I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason, took my

"I'll have the strip steak, medium rare, please."
He said, "Aren't you worried about the mad cow?""
"Nah, she can order for herself."

I tried to talk my wife into buying a case of Miller Light for $14.95.

Instead, she bought a jar of cold cream for $7.95.
I told her the beer would make her look better at night than the cold
cream.

And then the fight started....

Saturday morning I got up early, quietly dressed, made my lunch,
Grabbed the dog, and slipped quietly into the garage.
I hooked up the boat up to the truck, and proceeded to back out into a Torrential downpour.
The wind was blowing 50 mph, so I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather would be bad all day.
I went back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed. I cuddled up to my wife's back, now with a different anticipation, and whispered, 'The weather out there is terrible.'
My loving wife of 10 years replied, 'Can you believe my stupid husband Is out fishing in that?'
And then the fight started ...
----------

I asked my wife, "Where do you want to go for our anniversary?"
It warmed my heart to see her face melt in sweet appreciation.
"Somewhere I haven't been in a long time!" she said.
So I suggested, "How about the kitchen?"
And that's when the fight started....

True story:  My wife shared that she had never been to the zoo, during her childhood, and wanted to have that experience.  I promised her that we would go to the zoo during the next weekend.  On Friday night, I took her to the local bar and told her we could share a pitcher and a pizza, while we watched the wildlife.
