A wife finds a note from her husband on the fridge one morning..
My dear wife,
You will surely understand that I have certain needs that you, being 57 years old can no longer satisfy. I am very happy with you and I value you as a good wife. Therefore, after reading this letter, I hope that you will not wrongfully interpret the fact that I will be spending the evening with my 19 year old secretary at the comfort inn hotel.
Please don’t be upset – I shall be home before midnight. When the man came home late that night, he found the following note on the dining table…
My dear husband,
I received your letter and thank you for your honesty about me being 57 years old. I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that you are also 57 years old.
As you know I am a maths teacher at our local college. I would like to inform you that while you read this, I will be at the Hotel Fiesta with Michael, one of my students, who is also the assistant tennis coach. He is young virile and, like your secretary, is 19 years old.
As a successful businessman who has an excellent knowledge of maths, you will understand that we are in the same situation, although with one small difference – 19 goes into 57 more times than 57 goes into 19. Therefore, I will not be home until sometime tomorrow.
He Was the Shooter: Uncovering the Hidden Truths of Chuck Connors
Chuck Connors, celebrated for his portrayal of Lucas McCain in The Rifleman, underwent an extraordinary transformation from a gifted athlete to a versatile actor. Born in 1921, he first made his name in baseball and caught the attention of the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1940.
Although his career in Major League Baseball was short-lived, Connors ventured into acting in the early 1950s and achieved notable success with his role in the 1952 film “Pat and Mike.” His defining moment came in 1958’s “The Rifleman,” where he portrayed McCain, a New Mexico rancher. Connors fully embraced the character, honing skills such as horseback riding and stunt work. The show flourished largely thanks to Connors’ powerful presence and the authentic chemistry he shared with his son Johnny Crawford on screen.
In contrast to his TV persona as a model father, Connor’s personal life was full of complexity, including multiple marriages and infidelities that belied his wholesome image. He also stood out in the predominantly liberal Hollywood landscape as a vocal conservative who supported leaders such as Nixon and Reagan.
After The Rifleman, Connors found it difficult to break free from McCain’s legacy and explored various roles in television and film. In his later years, he reprised the beloved character in a 1991 TV movie before dying of lung cancer in 1992 at the age of 71.
Connors’ legacy lives on through his significant contributions to classic Westerns and the Golden Age of Television, highlighted by his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Despite his personal flaws, Connors’ authenticity and lasting impact on the entertainment industry leave a lasting impression.
