A young couple left the church and arrived at the hotel where they were
spending the first night of their honeymoon1. They opened the champagne2
and began undressing.
When the bridegroom removed his socks, his new wife asked,"Ewww
- what's wrong with your feet? Your toes look all mangled4 and weird5.
Why are your feet so gross?"
"I had tolio as a child," he answered.
"You mean polio?" she asked. "No, tolio. The disease only
affected6 my toes."
The bride was satisfied with this explanation, and they continued
undressing. When the groom3 took off his pants, his bride once again
wrinkled up her nose. "What's wrong with your knees?"
she asked. "They're all lumpy and deformed7!"
"As a child, I also had kneasles," he explained.
"You mean measles8?" she asked.
"No, kneasles. It was a strange illness that only affected my knees."
The new bride had to be satisfied with this answer. As the undressing
continued, her husband at last removed his underwear.
"Don't tell me," she said. "Let me guess... Smallcox?"
