I have found that getting older brings on a number of unexpected challenges.  This week I realized my weight is because of my bulimia.  I am just forgetting to purge.

Three guys were sitting in a sauna. Suddenly, there was a beeping sound. One guy pressed his forearm and the beeping sound stopped.

The others looked at him questioningly. "That was my pager," he said, "I have a microchip under the skin of my arm."

Then a phone rang. Another guy lifted his palm to his ear. When he finished, he explained, "That was my mobile phone, I have a microchip in my hand."

The third guy felt rather low-tech so not to be outdone, he had to do something to impress the others. He stepped out of the sauna and went to the bathroom. He returned with a piece of toilet paper hanging from his behind.

As the other looked at him, he said, "WELL, WILL YOU LOOK AT THAT. I'M GETTING A FAX!"

My sister from out of state dropped by today.  Of course, we got into a conversation about childhood memories.  I told her one of my fondest memories was when Uncle Bill took me out to the middle of the lake and tossed me in to teach me to swim.  It always bothered me that he never visited again.  My sister explained that mother wouldn’t let him come by again, and he wasn’t trying to teach me how to swim.

My house is haunted by a chicken.
A poultrygeist.  A fowl spirit.  
I plan to call an eggsorcist to help it cross to the other side.

This one is sadly funny.  Cotton farmer goes to the bank, like he does every year.  Banker asks, “What do you plan to grow?”  Farmer says, “I think I’ll try watermelons this year.”  The farmer has a fantastic crop and a great profit,  all without the help of a government bailout.  Next year, cotton farmer goes to the bank.  Banker, sort of excited, says, “So what are you going to try this year?”  Farmer says, “Cotton.”

I really only wanted to have 10 chickens.
But if God wants it to be 20,
Then 40 it is.

As I walked to my mailbox this morning, I found my chickens standing in a circle beside the road. Then I realized they were having a seance and trying to get to the other side.

And on the 8th day, God created seniors.
Most seniors never get enough exercise.
In His wisdom, God decreed that seniors become forgetful so they would have to search for their eyeglasses, keys, and other things, thus doing more walking.
And God looked down and saw that it was good.

Then God saw there was another need.
In His wisdom He made seniors lose coordination so they would drop things, requiring them to bend, reach, and stretch more.
And God looked down and saw that it was good.

Then God considered the function of bladders and decided seniors would have additional calls of nature, requiring more trips to the bathroom, thus providing more exercise.
God looked down and saw that it was good.

So if you find, as you age, you are getting up and down a lot more times, remember it's God's will. It is all in your best interest even though you mutter under your breath.

Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day.

Teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks, months, maybe they won't bother you for years.

I went to a new bar to watch the latest Packers/Bears game.  A patron had his dog with him all outfitted in Packer gear.  Whenever the pack scored he'd bark excitedly and run around the bar.  When the Bears did something good he'd growl.  When the Packers won he ran around barking with a smile on his doggy face for 5 minutes.  I asked the owner what happens when the Bears win?  He said he doesn't know, the dog's only 5 years old.

Many people ask me why I drink so much wine.

It's actually because I have a genetic condition, whereby my body doesn't produce its own alcohol.

Therefore I have to take supplements.

According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid-December.

Female reindeer retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring. Therefore, according to EVERY historical rendition depicting Santa’s reindeer, EVERY single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen, had to be a girl.

We should have known… ONLY women would be able to drag a fat man in a red velvet suit all around the world in one night and not get lost.
