A Couple in their late 60’s are both having problems rememberingthings. During a check-up, the doctor tells them that they'rephysically okay, but they might want to start writing things down tohelp them remember ..Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from hischair. 'Want anything while I'm in the kitchen?' he asks.'Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?''Sure.''Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?' she asks.'No, I can remember it.''Well, I'd like some strawberries on top, too. Maybe you should writeit down, so as not to forget it?'He says, 'I can remember that. You want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries.''I'd also like whipped cream. I'm certain you'll forget that, write itdown?' she asks.Irritated, he says, 'I don't need to write it down, I can remember it!Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream - I got it, for goodnesssake!'Then he toddles into the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, the old manreturns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs.She stares at the plate for a moment.'Where's my toast?'An elderly couple had dinner at another couple's house, and aftereating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen.The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, 'Last night we went outto a new restaurant and it was really great. I would recommend it veryhighly.'The other man said, 'What is the name of the restaurant?'The first man thought and thought and finally said, 'What’s the nameof that flower you give to someone you love? You know, the one that'sred and has thorns.''Do you mean a rose?''Yes, that's the one,' replied the man. He then turned towards thekitchen and yelled, 'Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we wentto last night?'Hospital regulations require a wheel chair for patients beingdischarged. However, while working as a student nurse, I found oneelderly gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed with asuitcase at his feet, who insisted he didn't need my help to leave thehospital.After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel himto 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 bathroomchanging out of her hospital gown.'A senior citizen said to his eighty-year old buddy:'So I hear you're getting married?''Yep!''Do I know her?''Nope!''This woman, is she good looking?''Not really.''Is she a good cook?''Naw, she can't cook too well.''Does she have lots of money?''Nope! Poor as a church mouse.''Well, then, is she good in the house'I don't know.''Why in the world do you want to marry her then?''Because she can still drive!'A man was telling his neighbor, 'I just bought a new hearing aid. Itcost me four thousand dollars, but it's state of the art. It'sperfect.''Really,' answered the neighbor. 'What kind is it?''Twelve thirty.'Morris, an 82 year-old man, went to the doctor to get a physical.A few days later, the doctor saw Morris walking down the street with agorgeous young woman on his arm.A couple of days later, the doctor spoke to Morris and said, 'You'rereally doing great, aren't you?'Morris replied, 'Just doing what you said, Doc: 'Get a hot mamma andbe cheerful.''The doctor said, 'I didn't say that.. I said, 'You've got a heartmurmur; be careful.'One more. . .!A little old man shuffled slowly into an ice cream parlour and pulledhimself slowly, painfully, up onto a stool... After catching hisbreath, he ordered a banana split.The waitress asked kindly, 'Crushed nuts?''No,' he replied, 'Arthritis.'Now, before you 'forget ', send them on to some other folks you knowwho could use a good laugh!!
