How do you know when you're getting Old ? ? ?


Phil Perry

Recommended Posts

I was asked recently, how I would know if I was getting old, and I replied,"When my Son has a bald head. . . . "

Bloody hell Phil, is that supposed to be funny? Don't you know there are bald headed sons of old people fleeing hairdresser shops as we speak, we should be giving them taxpayer funded wigs not persecuting them!

3 more mature gents were talking amongst themselves,

 

The 70 year old said "Darn, get up at 7 every morning and try to pee - stand there for 10 minutes for a result".

 

The 75 year old replies "Worse, get up at 7 and go for number 2's and sit there for a good half hour for a result, eat bran, drink plenty of water but of little help".

 

They turn to the 80 year old, "What about you Jack, how's age treating your systems"? ..

 

Jack responds, "No problems at all, 7am on time every morning pee like a horse, 7.30 poo like a cow, just wish I didn't wake up at 8 ...."

Over 75 success is going to a funeral and coming back home afterwards.

Elderly lady at a funeral home was asked by the Director how old her deceased husband they were attending to that day was; "102" she replied.

 

"Wow that was a good innings and how old are you dear"?

 

"101" she responded.

 

The Director says; "Well darling we have a spare room out back, no need traveling all the way back home! ..."
