Un couple fête ses 60 ans de mariage.

A married couple was celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary.
Lors de la réception, tout le monde veut savoir comment ils ont réussi à rester mariés pendant aussi longtemps.

At the party everybody wanted to know how they managed to stay married so long.
Le mari répond : "Nous avons passé un accord lorsque nous nous sommes mariés."

The husband responded: "When we were married we came to an agreement."
"Je prenais toutes les décisions importantes et ma femme prenait celles qui ne l'étaient pas."

"I would make all the major decisions and my wife would make all the minor decisions."
"Et en 60 ans de mariage, nous n'avons jamais eu à prendre de décision importante."
