An elderly couple had dinner at another couple's house, and after eating,
the wives left the table and went into the kitchen.
The two elderly gentlemen were talking, and one said, "Last night
we went out to a new restaurant, and it was really great. I would recommend
it very highly."
The other man said, "What's the name of the restaurant?"
The first man knits his brow in obvious concentration, and finally
said to his companion, "Aahh, What is the name of that red flower
you give to someone you love?
His friends replies, "A Carnation??"
"No. No. The other one" the man says.
His friend offers another suggestion, "The Poppy?"
"Nahhhh, growls the man. You know the one that is red and has
thorns."
His friend said, "Do you mean a rose?"
"Yes, Yes that's it. Thank you!" the first man says.
He then turns toward the kitchen and yells, "Rose, what's the
name of that restaurant we went to last night?"
