For the first time in many years, a an old man traveled from his rural town to the city to attend a movie. After buying his ticket, he stopped at the concession stand to purchase some popcorn.

Handing the attendant $1.50, he couldn’t help but comment, „The last time I came to the movies, popcorn was only 15 cents.“

„Well, sir,“ the attendant replied with a grin, „You’re really going to enjoy yourself. We have sound now..“
