An older couple is watching tv... And the man stands up and says, ""I'm going to the kitchen. Do you want anything?"" His wife answers, ""yes, please get me some chocolate ice cream with sprinkes."" The man starts to leave, when his wife says, ""Honey, are you sure you don't want to write that down, your doctor said you may need to in order to remember."" ""no, no, I'm sure I'll remember what you asked for."" A few minutes later, he returns with fried eggs and toast. His wife says, ""well, see, you did need to write that down. You completely forgot my bacon!""
