Senior Special

We went to breakfast at a restaurant where the "Senior's special" was
two eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast for $1.99.

"Sounds good," my wife said. "But I don't want the eggs."

"Then I'll have to charge you two dollars and forty-nine cents because there are no substitutions"

"You mean I'd have to pay for not taking the eggs?" my wife asked
incredulously.

"YES!!"

"OK, I'll take the special."

"How do you want your eggs?"

"Raw and in the shell," my wife replied. She took the two eggs home.
