Jacob and Rebecca

Jacob, age 92, and Rebecca, age 89, are all excited about their decision to get married. They go for a stroll  to discuss the wedding and on the way they pass a drugstore. Jacob suggests they go in.  Jacob addresses the man behind the counter: "Are you the owner?" The pharmacist answers "Yes."

Jacob: "We're about to get married.  Do you sell heart medication?"
Pharmacist: "Of course we do."

Jacob: "How about medicine for circulation?"
Pharmacist: "All kinds."

Jacob: "Medicine for rheumatism, scoliosis?"
Pharmacist: "Definitely."

Jacob: "Medicine for memory problems, arthritis, Jaundice?"
Pharmacist: "Yes, a large variety.  The works."

Jacob: "What about vitamins, sleeping pills, Geritol, antidotes for Parkinson's disease?"
Pharmacist: "Absolutely."

Jacob: "You sell wheelchairs and walkers?"
Pharmacist: "All speeds and sizes."

Jacob says to the pharmacist:  "We'd like to register here, please."
