An 80-year-old-couple are having problems remembering things, so
they decide to see their doctor to find out if anything is wrong
with them.
They see the doctor and explain the memory problems they've been
having. After a check-up, the doctor tells them that they are
physically fine but might want to start writing things down to
help them remember things. They thank the doctor and leave.
Later that night while watching TV, the old man gets up from his
chair.
"Where are you going?" asks his wife.
"To the kitchen," he replies.
"Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?" she asks.
"Sure," he says.
She says, "Maybe you should write it down so you'll remember."
"I'll remember," he says
"Well, I'd also like some strawberries on top," she says. "You
had better write that down cause I know you'll forget."
"I can remember that," he says, as he begins to lose his
patience. "You want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries."
"I'd also like whipped cream on top," she adds, "I know you'll
forget that, so you'd better write it down."
Hopping mad he says, "I don't need to write that down! I'll
remember just fine." He fumes into the kitchen to get the food.
After about 20 minutes he returns from the kitchen and hands her
a plate of bacon and eggs. She stares at the plate for a moment
and says,
"You forgot my toast."
A senior citizen in Florida bought a brand new red Corvette convertible.
He took off down the road, flooring it to 80 mph and enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had left on his head. "This is great," he thought as he roared down I-75. He pushed the pedal to the metal even more. Then he looked in his rear view mirror and saw a highway patrol trooper behind him, blue lights flashing and siren blaring. "I can get away from him with no problem" thought the man and he tromped it some more and flew down the road at over 100 mph. Then 110, 120 mph. Then he thought, "What am I doing? I'm too old for this kind of thing." He pulled over to the side of the road and waited for the trooper to catch up with him. The trooper pulled in behind the Corvette and walked up to the man.
"Sir," he said, looking at his watch. "My shift ends in 30 minutes and today is Friday. If you can give me a reason why you were speeding that I've never heard before, I'll let you go."
The man looked at the trooper and said, "Years ago my wife ran off with a Florida State Trooper, and I thought you were bringing her back".
"Have a good day, Sir," said the trooper.
So a major disaster in Texas turned out not to be so bad. Mike and I will have it in order by next week... Bottom line- A much better day !!!
