A Couple in their nineties are both having problems remembering things. During a check-up, the doctor tells them that they're physically okay, but they might want to start writing things down to help them remember .. > Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from his chair. '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 write it 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 it down?' 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 goodness sake!' > > Then he toddles into the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, the old man returns 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 couplehad dinner at another couple's house, and after eating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen. > The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, 'Last night we went out to a new restaurant and it was really great. I would recommend it very highly.' > The other man said, 'What is the name of the restaurant?' > The first man thought and thought and finally said, 'What's the name of that flower you give to someone you love? You know, the one that's red and has thorns.' > 'Do you mean a rose?' > 'Yes, that's the one,' replied the man. He then turned towards the kitchen and yelled, 'Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we went to last night?' > > > 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.' > > > > 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 bed?' > '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. It cost me four thousand dollars, but it's state of the art. It's perfect.' > '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 a gorgeous young woman on his arm. > A couple of days later, the doctor spoke to Morris and said, 'You're really doing great, aren't you?' > Morris replied, 'Just doing what you said, Doc: 'Get a hot mamma and be cheerful.'' > The doctor said, 'I didn't say that.. I said, 'You've got a heart murmur; be careful.' > > > One more. . .! > A little old manshuffled slowly into an ice cream parlour and pulled himself slowly, painfully, up onto a stool... After catching his breath, he ordered a banana split. > The waitress asked kindly, 'Crushed nuts?' > 'No,' he replied, 'Arthritis.'
