Can Still Dance

And Grandma still drivesGrandma is eighty-eight years old and still drives her own car. She writes:
Dear Grand-daughter,
The other day I went up to our local Christian book store and saw a
'Honk if you love Jesus' bumper sticker ..
I was feeling particularly sassy that day because I had just come from a
thrilling choir performance, followed by a thunderous prayer meeting..
So, I bought the sticker and put it on my bumper.
Boy, am I glad I did; what an uplifting experience that followed.
I was stopped at a red light at a busy intersection, just lost in
thought about the Lord and how good he is, and I didn't notice that the
light had changed.
It is a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn't
honked, I'd never have noticed.
I found that lots of people love Jesus!
While I was sitting there, the guy behind started honking like crazy,
and then he leaned out of his window and screamed, 'For the love of
God!'
'Go! Go! Go! Jesus Christ, GO!'
What an exuberant cheerleader he was for Jesus!
Everyone started honking!
I just leaned out my window and started waving and smiling at all those
loving people.
I even honked my horn a few times to share in the love!
There must have been a man from Florida back there because I heard him
yelling something about a sunny beach.
I saw another guy waving in a funny way with only his middle finger
stuck up in the air.
I asked my young teenage grandson in the back seat what that meant.
He said it was probably a Hawaiian good luck sign or something.
Well, I have never met anyone from Hawaii , so I leaned out the window
and gave him the good luck sign right back.
My grandson burst out laughing.
Why even he was enjoying this religious experience!!
A couple of the people were so caught up in the joy of the moment that
they got out of their cars and started walking towards me.
I bet they wanted to pray or ask what church I attended, but this is
when I noticed the light had changed.
So, grinning, I waved at all my brothers and sisters, and drove on
through the intersection.
I noticed that I was the only car that got through the intersection
before the light changed again and felt kind of sad that I had to leave
them after all the love we had shared.
So I slowed the car down, leaned out the window and gave them all the
Hawaiian good luck sign one last time as I drove away.
Praise the Lord
for such wonderful folks!!
Will write again soon,
Love, Grandma
You Got Male A little boy goes to his father and asks "Daddy, how was I born?"
The father answers, "Well, son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway! Your Mom and I first got together in a chat room on Yahoo. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your Mom and we met at a cyber-cafe. We sneaked into a secluded room, where your mother agreed to a download from my hard drive. As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later a little Pop-Up appeared that said: "You got Male!"
Trust Your Doctor?An older gentleman was on the operating table Awaiting surgery and he insisted that his son, A renowned surgeon, perform the operation. As he was about to get the anesthesia

Wedding Fairy

Wedding fairy
A married couple in their early
60s was celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant.
Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy
appeared on their table.
She said, 'For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to
each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish.'
The wife answered,
'Oh, I want to travel around the world with my
darling husband.'
The fairy waved her magic wand and - poof! - two tickets for the Queen
Mary II appeared in her hands.
The husband thought for a moment:
'Well,
this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come
again. I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years
younger than me.'
The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is
a wish!!.
So the fairy waved her magic wand and
poof!...
the husband became 92 years old.

THE SENIOR AND THE NEW CAR
A Florida senior
citizen drove his brand new Corvette convertible out of the dealership. Taking
off down the road he floored it to 80 mph,enjoying the wind blowing through
what little hair he had left.
"Amazing," he thought as he flew down I-75,
pushing the pedal even more.
Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw the highway
patrol behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring. He floored it to
100mph, then 110, then 120.
Suddenly he thought, "What am I doing? I'm too old
for this,"and pulled over to await the Trooper's arrival.
Pulling in behind him, the Trooper walked up to the
Corvette,looked at his watch and said, "Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes.
Today is Friday.If you can give me a reason for speeding that I've never heard
before, I'll let you go."
The old gentleman paused. Then said, "Years ago, my
wife ran off with a Florida StateTrooper. I thought you were bringing her
back."
"Have a good day, Sir," replied the Trooper.
Old LoveA husband in his back yard is trying to fly a kite.
He throws the kite up in the air, the wind catches it for a few seconds, then it comes crashing back down to earth.
He tries this a few more times with no success.
All the while, his wife is watching from the kitchen window,
Muttering to herself how men need to be told how to do everything.
She opens the window and yells to her husband,
"You need a piece of tail."
The man turns with a confused look on his face and says,
"Make up your mind. Last night, you told me to go fly a kite."
Poor Old Man
This old man goes to the doctor's.
"Help, Doc. I just got married to this 21 year old woman. She is hot and all she wants to do is have sex all day long."
"So what's the problem?"
"I can't remember where I live."
HAPPINESS...
The 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud lady, who
is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with her hair
fashionably coifed and makeup perfectly applied, even though she is legally
blind, moved to a nursing home today. Her husband of 70 years recently passed
away, making the move necessary.
After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the
nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready.
As she maneuvered
her walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of her tiny room, including
the eyelet sheets that had been hung on her window.
"I love it," she stated with the enthusiasm of
an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.
"Mrs.. Jones, you haven't seen the
room...just wait."
"That doesn't have anything to do with it,"
she replied. "Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time.
Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the
furniture is arranged... it's how I arrange my mind.
I already decided to love it "It's a
decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the
day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no
longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do?
Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I'll
focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away ... just
for this time in my life.
Old age is like a bank: you withdraw from what you've put
in? So, my advice to you would be to deposit a lot of happiness in the bank of memories.
Thank you for your part in filling my Memory bank. I am
still depositing. Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply
4. Give more unconditionally.
5. Expect less.
Why are Senior Citizens so Valuable?Remember:
Senior Citizens Are Valuable
We are more valuable than any of the younger generations:
We have silver in our hair.
We have gold in our teeth.
We have stones in our kidneys.
We have lead in our feet and.
We are loaded with natural gas
What to buy for Seniors the next Wedding you attend.

The Jewish GrandmotherA
Jewish grandma and her grandson are at the beach. He's playing in the water, she
is standing on the shore not wanting to get her feet wet, when all of a sudden,
a huge wave appears from nowhere and crashes directly onto the spot where the
boy is wading. The water recedes and the boy is no longer there ..he was swept
away.
The grandma holds her hands to the sky, screams and cries: Lord, my
GOD, how could you? Haven't I been a wonderful grandmother? Haven't I been a
wonderful mother? Haven't I kept a kosher home? Haven't I given to charity?
Haven't I lit candles every Friday night? Haven't I tried my very best to live a
life that you would be proud of?
A voice booms from the sky, "All right
already!"
A moment later another huge wave appears out of nowhere and
crashes on the beach. As the water recedes, the boy is standing there. He is
smiling and splashing around as if nothing had ever happened.
The voice
booms again. "I have returned your grandson. Are you
satisfied?"
She
responds, "He had a hat."
Why Nuns Should Drink
The 98-year-old Mother Superior from Ireland was dying.
The nuns gathered around her bed trying to make her last journey comfortable.
They gave her some warm milk to drink but she refused.
Then one of the
nuns took the glass back to the kitchen. Remembering a bottle of Irish whiskey
received as a gift the previous Christmas, she opened and poured a generous amount
into the warm milk.
Back at Mother
Superior's bed, she held the glass to her lips. Mother drank a little, then a
little more and before they knew it, she had drunk the whole glass down to the
last drop.
"Mother," the nuns asked in earnest,
please give us some wisdom before you die."
She raised herself
up in bed and with a pious look on her face said, "Don't sell that
cow."

"You come to the front door of the apartment complex. I am in apartment 14T.
There is a big panel at the door. With your elbow, push button 14T. I will buzz
you in. Come inside, the elevator is on the right. Get in, and with your elbow
hit 14. When you get out I am on the left. With your elbow, hit my doorbell."
"Grandma, that sounds easy, but why am I hitting all these buttons with my
elbow?"
"You're coming empty handed?"
At The GrandparentsAt The Grandparents
Two young boys were spending the night at their grandparents. At bedtime,
the two boys knelt beside their beds to say their prayers when the youngest one
began praying at the top of his lungs. "I PRAY FOR A
NEW BICYCLE... I PRAY FOR A NEW PLAYSTATION... I PRAY FOR A NEW VCR..."
His older brother leaned over and nudged the younger brother and said, "Why
are you shouting your prayers? God isn't deaf." To which the little brother
replied, "No, but Grandma is!"
Married 60 Years!
Married 60 Years!
A man was invited to some old friends' home for dinner. His buddy preceded
every request to his wife by endearing terms, calling her Honey, My Love,
Darling, Sweetheart, Pumpkin, etc.
He was impressed since the couple had been married almost 60 years. While the
wife was off in the kitchen, the guy said to his buddy, "I think it's wonderful
that after all the years you've been married, you still call your wife those pet
names."
His buddy hung his head. "To tell you the truth, I forgot her name about ten
years ago."
Fifty FiftyFifty Fifty
A young man saw an elderly couple sitting down to lunch at a fast food
restaurant. He noticed that they ordered only one meal and an extra drink cup.
As he watched, the gentleman carefully divided the hamburger in half, then
counted out the fries. One for him, one for her, until each had half of them.
Then he poured half of the soft drink into the extra cup and set it in front
of his wife. The old man began to eat, and his wife sat watching, with her hands
folded in her lap.
The young man decided to ask if they would allow him to purchase another meal
for them so that they didn't have to split theirs. The old gentleman said, "Oh,
no. We've been married 50 years, and everything has always been and will always
be shared, 50/50."
The young man then asked the wife if she was going to eat, and she replied,
"Not yet. It's his turn to use the teeth."

The Trick
A little boy greeted his grandmother at the door when she had come for a
visit with a hug and said, "I'm so happy to see you, Grandma. Now maybe Daddy
will do the trick he has been promising us."
The grandmother was curious. "What trick is that my dear?" she asked.
The little boy replied, "I heard Daddy tell Mommy that he would climb the

We can guess your age!
Outside
a nursing home, an old grandpa walked by, and one of the old
grandmas yelled out, "We bet we can tell exactly how old
you are."
The old man said, "There ain't no way you can guess it, you old
fools."
One of the grandmas said, "Sure we can! Just drop
your undershorts and we can tell your exact age."
Embarrassed just a little, the grandpa dropped his drawers.
The grandmas stared at him for a while, asked him to turn around a
couple of times, asked him to jump up and down for a little while
and then they all piped up and said, "You're 84 years
old!"
"How in the world did you guess?!?" he gasped
in amazement.
The grandmas snickered and laughed. Slapping their knees and
grinning from ear to ear, all three happily yelled in
unison: "Because we were at your birthday party yesterday!!"

FOR MY
OVER 50 FRIENDS, WHO NEED A LAUGH EVERY NOW AND THEN:
I feel
like my body has gotten totally out of shape, so I got my doctor's permission to join a fitness club
and start exercising. I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors. I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired
for an hour. But, by the time I got my leotards on, the class was over.
I've
still got it, but nobody wants to see it.
I'm
getting into swing dancing. Not on purpose. Some parts of my body are just
prone to swinging.
It's scary when you start making the same noises
as your coffeemaker.
These
days about half the stuff in my shopping cart says, "For fast
relief."
I've
tried to find a suitable exercise video for women my age, but they haven't made
one called "Buns of Putty."
Don't
think of it as getting hot flashes. Think of it as your inner child playing
with matches.
Don't let
aging get you down. It's too hard to get back up.
An Old Fart
One evening, a family brings their frail, elderly mother to a nursing home and leaves her, hoping she will be well cared for. The next morning, the nurses bathe her, feed her a tasty breakfast, and set her in a chair at a window overlooking a lovely flower garden.
She seems okay but after a while she slowly starts to lean over sideways in her chair. Two attentive nurses immediately rush up to catch her and straighten her up.
Again, she seems okay but after a while she starts to tilt to the other side. The nurses rush back and once more bring her back upright. This goes on all morning.
Later, the family arrives to see how the old woman is adjusting to her new home. "So Ma, how is it here? Are they treating you all right?" they ask.
"It's pretty nice," she replies. "Except they won't let you fart."
Think Like A WomanA woman was walking down the street when she was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless woman who asked her for a couple of dollars for dinner.
The woman took out her bill fold, extracted ten dollars and asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy some wine with it instead of dinner?"
"No," I had to stop drinking years ago, the homeless woman replied.
"Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food?" the woman asked
"No," I don't waste time shopping, the homeless woman said. "I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive."
"Will you spend this on a beauty salon instead of food?" the woman asked.
"Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless woman. "I haven't had my hair done in 20 years!"
Well," said the woman, "I'm not going to give you the money. Instead, I'm going to take you out for dinner with my hubby and myself tonight.
The homeless Woman was astounded. "Won't your husband be furious with you for doing that? I know I'm dirty, and I probably smell pretty disgusting."
The woman replied, "That's okay. It's important for him to see what a woman looks like after she has given up shopping, hair appointments and wine."
The New Hearing AidA man was telling his neighbor, "I just bought a new hearing aid. It cost me four thousand dollars, but it's state of the art. It's perfect."

Knock On WoodKnock On Wood
Three older ladies were discussing the travails of getting older. One said, "Sometimes I catch myself with a jar of mayonnaise in my hand in front of the refrigerator and can't remember whether I need to put it away, or start making a sandwich."
The second lady chimed in, "Yes, sometimes I find myself on the landing of the stairs and can't remember whether I was on my way up or on my way down.
The third one responded, "Well, I'm glad I don't have that problem; knock on wood!" as she rapped her knuckles on the table, then told them "That must be the door, I'll get it!"
Baseball Heaven?Baseball Heaven?
Two old guys, Abe and Sol, are sitting on a park bench feeding pigeons and talking about baseball, like they do every day. Abe turns to Sol and says, "Do you think there's baseball in heaven?"
Sol thinks about it for a minute and replies, "I dunno. But let's make a deal: if I die first, I'll come back and tell you if there's baseball in heaven, and if you die first, you do the same."
They shake on it and sadly, a few months later, poor Abe passes on. One day soon afterward, Sol is sitting there feeding the pigeons by himself when he hears a voice whisper, "Sol... Sol..."
Sol responds, "Abe! Is that you?"
"Yes it is, Sol," whispers Abe's ghost.
Sol, still amazed, asks, "So, is there baseball in heaven?"
"Well," says Abe, "I've got good news and bad news."
"Gimme the good news first," says Sol.
Abe says, "Well... there is baseball in heaven."
Sol says, "That's great! What news could be bad enough to ruin that!?"
Abe sighs and whispers, "You're pitching on Friday."

Bowl of Water
BOWL OF WATER
Miss Beatrice, the church organist, was in her eighties
and had never been married. She was admired for her sweetness and
kindness to all.
One
afternoon the pastor came to call on her and she showed him into her quaint
sitting room. She invited him to have a seat while she prepared tea.
As he sat facing her old Hammond organ, the young minister noticed a cut-glass
bowl sitting on top of it. The bowl was filled with water, and in the
water
floated, of all things, a condom!
When she
returned with tea and scones, they began to chat. The pastor tried to
stifle his curiosity about the bowl of water and its strange floater, but
soon it got the better of him and he could no longer resist.
"Miss
Beatrice", he said, "I wonder if you would tell me about
this?" pointing to the bowl.
"Oh,
yes," she replied, "Isn't it wonderful? I was walking through
the park a few months ago and I found this little package on the
ground. The directions said to place it on the organ, keep it wet
and that it would prevent the spread of disease.
Do you know I haven't

The second guy says, "Sure! I see fine. Go ahead and hit."
So the first old man steps up to the tee and really hits it. He turns to
his buddy and says, "Did you see it?".
"Sure!", says his buddy.
"Where did it go?", the first guy asks.
The second old man thinks for a minute and says, "I can't remember."
The Memory Test
The Memory Test
Three elderly men are at the doctor for a memory test. The
doctor says to the first man, "What is three times three?"
"274," was his reply.
The doctor says to the second man, "It's your turn. What is
three times three?"
"Tuesday," replies the second man.
The doctor says to the third man, "Okay, your turn. What's
three times three?"
"Nine," says the third man. "That's great!" says the doctor. "How did
you get that?"
"Simple," says the third man. "I subtracted 274 from Tuesday."
Jewish rye bread...Jewish rye bread...
Two old guys, one 80 and one 87, were sitting on their usual park bench
one morning.
The 87 year old had just finished his morning jog and wasn't even short
of breath.
The 80 year old was amazed at his friend's stamina and asked him what he
did to have so much energy
The 87 year old said "Well, I eat Jewish rye bread every day. It keeps
your energy level high and you'll have great stamina with the ladies."
So, on the way home, the 80 year old stops at the bakery. As he was
looking around, the lady asked if he needed any help. He said, "Do you
have any Jewish rye bread?"
She said, "Yes, there's a whole shelf of it . Would you like some?"
He said, "Yes, I want 5 loaves."
She said, "My goodness, 5 loaves...by the time you get to the 5th loaf,
it'll be hard"
He replied, "I can't believe it, everybody in the world knows about this
stuff but me."
The Bathtub TestDuring a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director how do
you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized.
"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a
teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to
empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would use the
bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup."
"No." said the Director, "A normal person would pull the plug. Do you
want a bed near the window?"
The AdA lonely woman, aged 70, decided that it was time to get married. She put an ad in the local paper that read:
HUSBAND WANTED!
MUST BE IN MY AGE GROUP (70's),
MUST NOT BEAT ME,
MUST NOT RUN AROUND ON ME,
AND MUST STILL BE GOOD IN BED!
ALL APPLICANTS PLEASE APPLY IN PERSON.
On the second day she heard the doorbell. Much to her dismay, she opened the door to see a gray-haired gentleman with no arms or legs sitting in a wheelchair. The old woman said, "You're not really asking me to consider you, are you? Just look at you ... you have no legs!" The old man smiled, "Therefore I cannot run around on you!"
She snorted. "You don't have any hands either!" Again the old man smiled, "Nor can I beat you!"
She raised an eyebrow and gazed intently. "Are you still good in bed?" With that, the old gentleman leaned back, beamed a big broad smile and said, "I rang the doorbell, didn't I?"
Sporting Goods ShopA woman goes into a Sporting Goods Shop to buy a rod and reel for her grandfather's birthday. She doesn't know which one to get so she just grabs one and goes over to the counter.
An elderly associate is standing there wearing dark shades. She says, 'Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me anything about this rod and reel?'
He says, 'Ma'am, I'm completely blind; but if you'll drop it on the counter, I can tell you everything from the sound it makes.' She doesn't believe him but drops it on the counter anyway.
He says, 'That's a six-foot Shakespeare graphite rod with a Zebco 404 reel and 10-LB. Test line. It's a good all around combination; and it's on sale this week for only $20.00.'
She says, 'It's amazing that you can tell all that just by the sound of it dropping on the counter. I'll take it!' As she opens her purse, her credit card drops on the floor.
'Oh, that sounds like a Master Card,' he says.
She bends down to pick it up and accidentally breaks wind. At first she is really embarrassed, but then realizes there is no way the blind clerk could tell it was she who tooted. Being blind, he wouldn't know that she was the only person around.
The man rings up the sale and says, 'That'll be $34.50 please.'
The woman is totally confused by this and asks, 'Didn't you tell me the rod and reel were on sale for $20.00? How did you get $34.50?'
He replies,' Yes, Ma'am. The rod and reel is $20.00, but the Duck Call is $11.00 and the Catfish Bait is $3.50.'
A Rabbi's Advice A man goes to see
the Rabbi. "Rabbi, something terrible is happening and I
have to talk to you
about it."
The
Rabbi asked, "What's wrong?"
The man replied, "My wife is poisoning
me."
The Rabbi, very surprised by this, asks, "How can that
be?"
The man then pleads, "I'm telling you, I'm certain she's poisoning
me, what should I do?"
The Rabbi then offers, "Tell you what. Let me
talk to
her, I'll see what I can find out and I'll let you know."
A
week later the Rabbi calls the man and says, "Well, I spoke to your wife. I
spoke to her on the phone for three hours. You still want my advice?"
The
man said yes and the Rabbi replied,
"Take the
poison."

Grandma goes to CourtLawyers should never ask a Mississippi grandma a question if they aren't prepared for the answer.
In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called his first witness, a grandmotherly, elderly woman to the stand. He approached her and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know me?' She responded, 'Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you since you were a boy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to realize you'll never amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. Yes, I know you.'
The lawyer was stunned. Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across the room and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know the defense attorney?'
She again replied, 'Why yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a
youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He can't build a normal relationship with anyone, and his law practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention he cheated on his wife with three different women. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know him.'
The defense attorney nearly died.
The judge asked both counselors to approach the bench and, in a very quiet voice, said,
'If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send you both to the electric chair.'
The Love DressThe mother-in-law stopped unexpectedly by the recently married couple's house. She rang the doorbell and stepped into the house. She saw her daughter-in-law standing naked by the door.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
"I'm waiting for my husband to come home from work.," the daughter-in-law answered.
"But you're NAKED!" the mother-in-law exclaimed.
"This is my Love Dress." the daughter-in-law explained.
"Love Dress? But you're naked!"
"My husband loves me to wear this dress! It makes him happy and it makes me happy. I would appreciate it if you would leave because he will be home from work any minute." The mother-in-law was tired of all this romantic talk and left.
On the way home she thought about the Love Dress. When she got home she got undressed, showered, put on her best perfume and waited by the front door.
Finally her husband got home. He walked in and saw her standing naked by the door.
"What are you doing?" He exclaimed.
"This is My Love Dress." She replied.
"Needs ironing." he said.
ReminiscingThree old ladies were sitting side by side in their retirement home, reminiscing.
The first lady recalled shopping at the green grocers, and demonstrated with her hands the length and thickness of a cucumber she could buy for a penny.
The second old lady nodded, adding that onions used to be much bigger and cheaper also, then demonstrated the size of two big onions she could buy for a penny a piece.
Then the third old lady chipped in with: "I can't hear a word you're saying, but I remember the guy you're talking about."
A LifesaveTwo elderly women are sitting on the front porch, doing nothing. One woman turns and asks, "Do you still get horny?"
The other replies, "Oh, sure I do."
The first old woman asks, "What do you do about it?"
The second old lady replies, "I suck a lifesaver."
... After a few moments, the first old lady asks, "Who drives you to the beach?"
StandardsLittle old lady is sitting on a bench in Miami Beach. A man walks over and sits down on the other end of the bench. After a few moments, the woman asks, "Are you a stranger here?" He replies, "I used to live here years ago."
"So, where were you all these years?"
"In prison," he says.
"For what did they put you in prison?"
He looks at her, and very quietly says, "I killed my wife."
"Oh," says the woman. "So you're single..."
Certain AilmentsA group of Sun City Senior citizens were sitting around talking about their ailments:
"My arms are so weak I can barely hold a cup of coffee", said one.
"Yes, I know. My cataracts are so bad I can't even see my coffee", replied another.
"I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck", said a third, to which several nodded in agreement.
My blood pressure pills make me dizzy," another went on.
"I guess that's the price we pay for getting old," winced an old man as he shook his head.
Then there was a short moment of silence.
"Well, it's not that bad" said one woman cheerfully. "Thank God, we can all still drive"!
The ProfessorsTwo retired professors were vacationing with their wives at a hotel in the Catskills. They were sitting on the veranda one summer evening, watching the sun set.
The history professor asked the psychology professor, "Have you read Marx?"
To which the professor of psychology replied, "Yes, and I think it's these darned wicker chairs."
At the Doctor's OfficeThe old man walked into a doctor's office and the receptionist
asked him what he had. The old man said: 'Shingles.' So she wrote down
his name, address, medical insurance number and told him to have a
seat.
Fifteen minutes later a nurse's aide came out and asked the old man what he had.
The old man said, 'Shingles.' So she wrote down height, weight, a complete medical history and told the old man to wait in the examining room.
A half hour later a nurse came in and asked the old man what he
had. The old man said, 'Shingles.' So the nurse gave the old man a blood test, a
blood pressure test, an electrocardiogram, and told the old man to take off
all his clothes and wait for the doctor.
An hour later the doctor came in and found the old man sitting
patiently in the nude and asked the old man what he had. The old man said,
'Shingles.'
The doctor asked, 'Where?'
The old man said,
'Outside on the truck. Where do you want me to unload 'em??'
A Long WalkReporter: "So you are 100 years old. How did you manage to live so long?"
Old man: "Well, son, I got married when I was 21. The wife and I decided that if we had arguments, the loser would take a long walk to get over being mad. I suppose I have been benefited most by 79 years of fresh air."
Fluctuations I had a bunch of Canadian dollars I needed to exchange, so I went to the currency exchange window at the local bank.
Short line.
Just one lady in front of me . . . an Asian lady who was trying to exchange yen for dollars and she was a little irritated .
She asked the teller,
"Why it change?? Yesterday, I get two hunat dolla for yen.
Today I get hunat eighty?? Why it change?"
The teller shrugged his shoulders and said, "Fluctuations."
The Asian lady says, "Fluc you white people, too."
Horse or Chicken?A retiring farmer in preparation for selling his land, needed to rid his farm of animals. So he went to every house in his town. To the houses where the man is the boss, he gave a horse. To the houses where the woman is the boss, a chicken was given. He got toward the end of the street and saw a couple outside gardening. "Who's the boss around here?" he asked. "I am." said the man. "I have a black horse and a brown horse," the farmer said, "which one would you like?" The man thought for a minute and said, "The black one." "No, no, no, get the brown one." the man's wife said. "Here's your chicken." said the farmer.
Take Thee To A Nunnery...Sitting behind some nuns (whose habits partially blocked their view) at a hockey game, three men decided to badger the nuns in an effort to get them to move. In a very loud voice, the first guy said, 'I think I'm going to move to Utah, there are only 100 nuns living there.' The second guy spoke up and said, 'I want to go to Montana , there are only 50 nuns living there.' The third guy said, 'I want to go to Idaho , there are only 25 nuns living there.' One of the nuns turned around, looked at the men, and in a very sweet, calm voice said, 'Why don't you go to hell? There aren't any nuns there!'
Hospital Regulations Require A Wheel Chai
Hospital regulations require a wheel chair for patients being discharged. However, while working as a student nurse, I found one elderly gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his feet, who insisted he didn't need my help to leave the hospital.
After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the elevator. On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him.
"I don't know," he said. "She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown."
Golden AnniversaryA couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary on the beach in Montego Bay, Jamaica. Their domestic tranquility had long been the talk of the town. "What a peaceful & loving couple". The local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the
secret of their long and happy marriage.
"Well, it dates back to our honeymoon in America," explained the man. "We visited the Grand Canyon in Arizona and took a trip down to the bottom of the canyon by horse. We hadn't gone too far when my wife's horse stumbled and she almost fell off. My wife looked down at the horse and quietly said, "That's once."
"We proceeded a little further and the horse stumbled again, this time causing her to drop her water. Once more my wife quietly said, "That's twice."
We hadn't gone a half-mile when the horse stumbled for a third time. My wife quietly removed a revolver from her purse and shot the horse dead.
I shouted at her, "What's wrong with you, woman! Why did you shoot the poor animal like that? Are you crazy?"
She looked at me, and quietly said, "That's once."
"And from that moment... we have lived happily ever after."
You Better Listen!One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap. Although she's not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book.
Along comes a Game Warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, 'Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?'
'Reading a book,' she replies, (thinking, 'Isn't that obvious?')
'You're in a Restricted Fishing Area,' he informs her
'I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading'
'Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up.'
'For reading a book,' she replies,
'You're in a Restricted Fishing Area,' he informs her again,
'I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading'
'Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up.'
'If you do that, I'll have to charge you with Sexual assault,' says the woman.
'But I haven't even touched you,' says the game warden.
'That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know you could start at any moment.'
'Have a nice day ma'am,' and he left.
MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think.
Laughing and Age"You don't stop laughing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop laughing."
--Michael Pritchard
Senior fishing...At a Senior Citizen's luncheon, an elderly gentleman and an elderly lady struck up a conversation and discovered
that they both loved to fish.
Since both of them were widowed, they decided to go fishing together the next day.
The gentleman picked the lady up, and they headed to the river to his fishing boat and started out on their adventure.
They were riding down the river when there was a fork in the river, and the gentleman asked the lady,
'Do you want to go up or down?'
All of a sudden the lady stripped off her shirt and pants and made mad passionate love to the man right there in the boat !
When they finished, the man couldn't believe what had just happened, but he had just experienced the best sex that he'd had in years.
They fished for a while and continued on down the river, when soon they came upon another fork in the river.
He again asked the lady, 'Up or down ?'
There she went again, stripped off her clothes, and made wild passionate love to him again.
This really impressed the elderly gentleman, so he asked her to go fishing again the next day.!
She said yes and there they were the next day, riding in the boat when they came upon the fork in river, and the elderly gentleman asked, 'Up or down ?'
The woman replied, 'Down.'
A little puzzled and disappointed, the gentleman guided the boat down the river when he came upon another fork in the river and he asked the lady, 'Up or down ?'
She replied, 'Up.'
This really confused the gentleman so he asked, 'What's the deal? Yesterday, every time I asked you if you wanted to go up or down you made mad passionate love to me. Now today, nothing!'
She replied, 'Well, yesterday I wasn't wearing my hearing aid and I thought the choices were hump or drown.'

I'm dead!
An older couple is lying in bed one morning.
They had just awakened from a good night's sleep.
He takes her hand and she responds, "Don't touch me."
"Why not?" he asked.
She answered, "Because I'm dead."
The husband asked...
"What are you talking about?
We're both lying here in bed together and talking to one another!"
She said, "No, I'm definitely dead."
He insisted, "You are not dead.
What in the world makes you think you're dead?"
"Because I woke up this morning and nothing hurts."
Happiness
A woman who just turned 50 is at home, naked, happily
jumping on her
bed and laughing with pure delight.
Her husband watches for a few minutes and asks:
"Do you have any idea
how ridiculous you look? What's the matter with
you?"
The woman continues to bounce on the bed and says:
"I don't care what you think. I just came from
having a mammogram and
the doctor says that, not only am I healthy, but I
have the breasts
of an 18 year old."
The husband asks: "What did he say about the 50
year old ass?"
She replies: "Your name never came up."
It was the mailman's last
day on the job after 35 years of
carrying the mail through all kinds of weather to the same neighborhood.
When he arrived at the first house on
his route he was greeted by the whole family there, who congratulated him and
sent him on his way with big gift certificate envelope.
At the second house they presented him with a box of
fine
imported cigars.
The folks at the third house handed him a selection
of terrific
fishing lures.
At each of the houses along his route, he was met
with
congratulations, farewells, cards, and gifts of all types and values.
At the final house he was met at the door
by a strikingly beautiful young blonde
in a revealing negligee. She took him by
the hand,
gently led him through the door (which she
closed behind him), and led him up the stairs to the
bedroom where they had
a most passionate liaison.
Afterwards, they went downstairs, where she fixed
him a giant
breakfast: eggs, potatoes, ham, sausage, blueberry waffles, and
fresh-squeezed orange juice.
When he was truly satisfied she poured him a cup of
steaming
coffee. As she was pouring, he noticed a dollar bill sticking out from
under the cup's bottom edge. '...All this was just too wonderful for
words,' he said, ......but what's the dollar for?'
'Well,' she said, 'last night, I told my
husband
that today would be your last day ...and that
we should do
something special for you.
I asked him what to give you?'
He said, "...Screw him ......give him a
dollar."
The blonde then blushed and
said, '....But the breakfast was my idea.'
You you thought Lawyers were Smart!
