Bill and Hillary are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary .
As they sat over a candle lit dinner, Hillary made a confession.
"Bill," she says. "You know that box in the basement you told me never to open?"
"Yes" says Bill.
"It had been bothering me for years and finally curiosity won over. I opened it."
Bill sighed in disappointment. Hillary asked, "I found three empty beer bottles and seventy seven dollars. Can I ask why you were keeping three empty beer bottles?"
"Well, Hillary. I'm going to be honest. Whenever I was unfaithful to you, I would come home and open a beer. I would drink it thinking about how I really love you and how sorry I was. The beer bottles are reminders of the mistakes I made cheating on you." Hillary was surprised but she knew his past and accepted it.
"Bill, I'm dissapointed, but we have been through worse. I love you and I forgive you. Can I ask why there was seventy seven dollars in the box?" Bill shrugged.
"Everytime the box filled up with beer bottles, I took them back for the deposit."
