One evening a grandmother was babysitting her two granddaughters Anne and Betty. Presently, 8:00 PM rolled around.
"Okay, time for bed," she informed the two children who were playing in the den.
"Why?" Anne asked (aged 6). "It's so early!"
"Your father said your bedtime is 8:00," the grandmother said.
"You don't have to listen to him," the Betty (aged 4½) replied.
"Why not?" the grandmother asked.
Betty answered, "Because you're his mother!"
Three seniors are out for a stroll.
One of them remarks, “It’s windy.”
Another replies, “No way. It’s Thursday.”
The last one says, “Me too. Let’s have a soda.”
I was wanting to fly my 82 year old mother, who has never flown to Chicago, for a visit.
"No way am I getting on an air plane," was mother's response.
I replied, "Look, Mom, when it's your time to go, it doesn't matter if you're on the ground or in the air."
Mother said, "I know, I just don't want to be that far off the ground when it's the pilot's time to go."
Whenever asked, "How are you doing?"....
the gentleman, who was born in 1947, responds, "Pretty darn good, considering 72 years ago I couldn't walk."
