The Older Crowd

A distraught senior citizen phoned her doctor's office. 'Is it true,' she wanted to know, 'that the medicationyou 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 conditionbecause 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.'

Aging: 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 traveled 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.

One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young.

Ah, being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.

First you forget names,then you forget faces. Then you forget to pull up your zipper. It's worse when you forget to pull it down.

Long ago, when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft... Today, it's called golf.

The only thing golden in
later years is the color of
your urine.

Lord, please...keep Your arm around my shoulder, and, Your hand over my mouth!

For those keeping track, my son's first day of treatment went very well, he was tired and slept alot but he is fine. Now into the 2nd day and so far, everything seems good...no major side affects. Thanks for all your prayers.
