This is a true story.... And, only women of a certain era wilfully appreciate it. (If you don 't understand, show it to your mother.... she'll get it!) A Michigan woman and her family were vacationing in a small New England town where Paul Newman and his family often visited
One Sunday morning, the woman got up early to take a long walk. After a brisk five-mile hike, she decided to treat herself to a double-dip chocolate ice cream cone. She hopped in the car, drove to the centre of the village and went straight to the combination bakery/ice cream parlour.
THERE WAS ONLY ONE OTHER PATRON IN THE STORE:
Paul Newman, sitting at the counter having a doughnut and coffee. The woman's heart skipped a beat as her eyes made contact with those famous baby-blues.
The actor nodded graciously and the star-struck woman smiled demurely. 'Pull yourself together!' she chided herself You 're a happily married woman with three children!
And you're forty-five years old, not a teenager! The clerk filled her order, and she took the double-dip chocolate ice cream cone in one hand, and her change in the other.
Then she went out the door, avoiding even a glance in Paul Newman 's direction. When she reached her car, she realised that she had a handful of change but her other hand was empty. Where's my ice cream cone? Did I leave it in the store? Back into the shop she went, expecting to see the cone still in the clerk's hand, or in a holder on the counter or something! No ice cream cone was in sight. With that, she happened to look over at Paul Newman. His face broke into his familiar, warm, friendly grin and he said to the woman,
'You put it in your purse!
