As usual Dave woke up and took a quick shower before waking up his wife with a kiss on the cheek. It was then that he realized what was happening. His wife was getting serious wrinkles, crows feet. What millions of men were discovering everyday. Big deep lines turning into wrinkles.
It was happening all over the country, men discovering their wives were aging and not just aging but showing their age. The problem was how to tell her without a lot of tears, words, and kicks. The method they tried was gifts.
Women like gifts, and keep them if someone gives it to them. Those crocheted sweaters with panda bears on them? Christmas gifts from Aunt Sis. So off to the pharmacy the men flew. And they quickly discovered that anti wrinkle cream is pretty confusing. They come in tubes, soaps, oils, injections, and capsules. Some promise instant results while others demand weeks of loyal dedication. Some were cheap, some expensive, some in English, some not. They quickly discovered wrinkles might be a bigger enemy than first thought. So a plan was born.
Each man was given a different kind, so the could discover the best wrinkle cream. Full of enthusiasm, some men ran straight home, to give their wives the gifts that were really to benefit themselves. With big smiles they handed their wives the cream, and waited for approval. They were rewarded with stilettos flying past their ears, as the wives cried that their husbands didn’t think they were attractive anymore. Those husbands quickly warned the others that their plan was not the way to go. And with all that crying, there were sure to be at least two more canyons across her forehead in the morning.
Stumped, a few men placed the cream in the medicine cabinet in the bathroom, hoping their wives would just find the cream and start using it on their own. So there they sat, collecting dust, and not doing anything to rectify the growing lines. One wife even accused her husband of cheating, saying his mistress must have left the cream. Boy was this plan backfiring.
One husband came up with another plan. After his wife went to sleep he quickly put the cream over her wrinkles. He stood back and was very proud. Then she rolled over and got it all over the pillow. After several nights of trying, he gave up because it was all getting wiped off her face and he had to do the laundry.
At this point some men decided wrinkles are not that bad and gave up. But one man was not willing to give up. He thought about the things his wife like best, diamonds, gold, silver, shiny things and thats when it struck him. He knew what to do.
He ran to the store as fast as his feet would take him. He found the prettiest jar he could find and then after putting his cream in it he put a big red pretty bow on it and brought it home.
His wife was ecstatic about this beautiful new jar he brought her. She loved it! But what was in the jar? The husband claimed he just wanted her to have the beautiful jar. She saw that it was wrinkle cream but put it right on the bathroom counter.
Every morning she was happy to take out her pretty jar and put on the cream. Soon the husband could see the wrinkles were going away. Now he knew, what was important was what was on the outside of the bottle not the inside. Beautiful jars sold like crazy, wives were happy and looking lovely.
