The bride was very anxious since this would be their first time, but the groom seemed to be moving rather slowly. "Don't be shy honey, we love each other.", she said. "Well, I'm a little reluctant to let you see me with my clothes off. When I was a child I suffered from several diseases which left their marks on me." The bride reassured him that nothing could be so terrible and per- suaded him to start taking his clothes off. He started to take off his shoes and socks but hesitated. "Now you'll see", he said, "I had tolio." "Oh, you mean polio", she said. "No, tolio. Look." And sure enough, he took off his shoes and socks and his toes were slightly deformed. This didn't discourage the bride one bit. "So what", she said, "take off your shirt and let's get going." He hesitated again. "I suffered from another disease - lumps." "Oh, you mean mumps.", she said. "No, lumps. Look." He took off his shirt and all over his chest were small, barely perceptable lumps. The bride was slightly suprised but still eager. "No problem", she said, "get your pants off and get over here!" Once again he hesitated. "I had yet another sickness when I was young - kneesles." "Oh, you mean measles", she said. "No, kneesles. Look." He removed his pants and his knees were covered with red marks. This bothered the bride slightly but she was still willing. He was down to his briefs and she figured they on their way now. "Go ahead", she said, "we're almost there." He hesitated again. "There's just one more thing..." "Don't tell me", she said, "I can guess. You had... ...small cox!" _____________________________________________________________________________ ^ ^ / \ / \ / \ / \ / ( \ / * \ /-------\ /-------\ I his I I hers I Bob (Two Sheds) Dyas I I I I ihnp4!tellab1!tellab2!tellab3!rmd I +---+ I I +---+ I I ! !
