Seventy-two-year-old Edgar recently picked a

Seventy-two-year-old Edgar recently picked a new primary care physician. After two visits and exhaustive lab tests, the doctor said Edgar was doing “fairly well” for his age. A little concerned about that comment, Edgar couldn’t resist asking the doctor, “Do you think I’ll live to be 80?” The doctor asked, “Well, do you smoke or drink beer?” “Oh no,” Edgar replied, “I’ve never done either.” Then the doctor asked, “Do you eat rib-eye steaks and bar-b-qued ribs?” Edgar said, “No, I’ve heard that all red meat is very unhealthful!” “Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf?” the doctor asked. “No, I don’t,” Edgar replied. Then the doctor asked, “Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or run around with women?” “No,” Edgar said, “I don’t do any of those things.” The good doctor looked at Edgar and said, “Then why the heck do you want to live to be 80?”

Two elderly ladies had been friends for many

Two elderly ladies had been friends for many decades. Over the years they had shared all kinds of activities and adventures. Lately, their activities had been limited to meeting a few times a week to play cards. One day they were playing cards when one looked at the other and said, “Now don’t get mad at me… I know we’ve been friends for a long time, but I just can’t remember your name. I’ve thought and thought, but I can’t recall it. Please tell me what your name is.” Her friend glared at her. For at least three minutes she just looked at her. Finally she said, “How soon do you need to know?”

An 80-year-old man is having his annual

An 80-year-old man is having his annual checkup. The doctor asks him how he’s feeling. “I’ve never been better!” he replies. “I’ve got an 18-year-old bride who’s pregnant and having my child! What do you think about that?” The doctor considers this for a moment, then says, “Well, let me tell you a story. I know a guy who’s an avid hunter. He never misses a season. But one day he’s in a bit of a hurry and he accidentally grabs his umbrella instead of his gun.” “So he’s in the woods,” the doctor continues, “and suddenly a grizzly bear appears in front of him! He raises up his umbrella, points it at the bear, and squeezes the handle. The bear drops dead in front of him, suffering from a bullet wound in his its chest.” “That’s impossible! Someone else must have shot that bear,” the man said. “Exactly.”
