>A woman awakes during the night, and her husband isn't in bed with her.
>She goes downstairs to look for him. She finds him sitting at the
>kitchen table with a cup of coffee in front of him. He appears to be in
>deep thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wipes a tear
>from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee.

>"What's the matter, dear?" she asks. "Why are you down here at this time
>of night?" The husband looks up from his coffee, "Do you remember 20
>years ago when we were dating, and you were only 16?" he asks solemnly.
>"Yes, I do," she replies. "Do you remember when your father caught us in
>the back seat of my car making love?"
>
> "Yes, I remember," says the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside
>him.
>
>The husband continues, "Do you remember when he shoved the shotgun in my
>face and said, 'Either you marry my daughter, or I'll
>send you to jail for 20 years?" "I remember that, too," she replies
>softly. He wipes another tear from his cheek and says,
>
>"I would have gotten out today."
