"To the kitchen" he replies.
"Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?"
"Sure."
"Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?" she
asks.
"No, I can remember it."
"Well, I'd like some strawberries on top, too. You'd better write it
down because you know you'll forget it."
He says, "I can remember that! You want a bowl of ice cream with
strawberries."
"I'd also like whipped cream. I'm certain you'll forget that, so you'd
better write it down!" she retorts.
Irritated, he says, "I don't need to write it down, I can remember it!
Leave me alone! Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream - I got
it, for goodness sake!" Then he grumbles into the kitchen.
After about 20 minutes the old man returns from the kitchen and hands
his wife a plate of bacon and eggs.
She stares at the plate for a moment and says - "Where's my toast?--
I don't suffer from insanity - I enjoy every minute of it -

Two elderly couples were enjoying friendly conversation when one of

men asked the other, "Fred, how was the memory clinic you went to last
month?""Outstanding," Fred replied. "They taught us all the latest
psychological techniques: visualization, association, etc. It was
great.""That's great! And what was the name of the clinic?"
Fred went blank. He thought and thought, but couldn't remember. Then
a smile broke across his face and he asked, "What do you call that
flower with the long stem and thorns?""You mean a rose?""Yes, that's
it!"He turned to his wife, "Rose, what was the name of that memory
clinic?"Cathy,
