Abe and Esther are flying to Australia for a two-week vacation to celebrate their
40th anniversary.

Suddenly, over the public address system, the Captain announces,

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I am afraid I have some very bad news. Our engines have
ceased functioning and we will attempt an emergency landing. Luckily, I see an
uncharted island below us and we should be able to land on the beach. However,
since we will be in such a remote area of the Pacific Ocean, the odds are that we
may never be rescued and will have to live on the island for the rest of our
lives!"

Thanks to the skill of the flight crew, the plane lands safely on the island. An
hour later Abe turns to his wife and asks, "Esther, have we already sent our tax
return to the IRS with the $5000 payment due?"

"No, sweetheart," she responds. "Not yet."

Abe, still shaken from the crash landing, then asks, "Esther, did we pay our
American Express card yet?"

"Oh, no! I'm sorry. I forgot to send the check," she says. 

"One last thing Esther. Did you remember to send checks for the Visa and
MasterCard this month?" he asks. 

"Oh, forgive me, Abe," begged Esther. "I haven't yet sent those either."

Abe grabs her and gives her the biggest kiss in 40 years. Esther pulls away and
asks him, "What was that for?"

Abe answers, "They'll find us!"
