THE OLDER CROWD


A distraught senior citizen phoned her doctor's office. "Is it true," she wanted to know, "that the medication you prescribed has to be taken for the rest of my life?"


"Yes, I'm afraid so," the doctor told her.


There was a moment of silence before the senior lady replied, "I'm wondering, then, just how serious is my condition, because this prescription is marked NO REFILLS."

An older gentleman was on the operating table awaiting surgery and he insisted that his son, a renowned surgeon, perform the operation.


As he was about to get the anesthesia, he asked to speak to his son.


"Yes, Dad, what is it? "


"Don't be nervous, son; do your best and just remember, if it doesn't go well, if something happens to me, your mother is going to come and live with you and your wife...."

Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.
~~~~~~~


The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.
~~~~~~~


Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me! I want people to know "why" I look this way. I've travelled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of algebra.

You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.
