Shy
When it comes to telling her age, she's shy...about 10 years shy.
Exercise Plan For Over-50s
Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at each side. With a 5-lb potato sack in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, and then relax. Each day you'll find that you can hold this position for just a bit longer. After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato sacks. Then try 50-lb potato sacks and then eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb potato sack in each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute. After you feel confident at that level, put a potato in each sack.
Steady As She Goes
Helen and I were walking to our car holding hands a week ago and in the car parked next to ours was a couple observing us. As I went to get into our car the gentleman said he and his wife were just talking about how sweet we were at our age, still holding hands! I replied, we're trying to keep one another from falling!

Simple Solution
Someone asked an old man, "Even after 70 years, you still call your wife 'darling, honey, love.' What's the secret?" He replied, "I forgot her name and I'm scared to ask her."
Food Fight
After eating out at a local restaurant, the waitress clearing our tables noticed the left-overs and said, "You wanna box for that?" I said, "No, but we could arm wrestle for it."
Sound Sleeper
My sister had been ill, so I called to see how she was doing. My ten-year-old niece answered the phone. "Hello," she whispered. "Hi, Honey. How's your mother doing?" I asked. "She's sleeping," she answered, again in a whisper. "Did she go to the doctor?" I asked. "Yes. She got some medicine," my niece said softly. "Well, don't wake her. Just tell her I called. What are you doing, by the way?" Again in a very soft whisper, she answered, "Practicing my trumpet."
Marriage Funnies
A bookseller conducting a market survey asked a woman:
"Which book has helped you most in your life?" The woman replied, "My husband's check
book!!"
A prospective husband in a book store: "Do you have a book called 'Husband: the Master of the House?'" Sales girl: "Sir, fiction and comics are on the 1st floor!"
Pharmacist to customer: "Sir, please understand, to buy an anti-depression pill you need a proper prescription ... Simply showing marriage certificate and wife's picture is not enough!"
There are 3 kinds of men in this world. Some remain single and make wonders happen. Some have girlfriends and see wonders happen. The rest get married and wonder what happened!
Wives are magicians. They can change anything into an argument.
When a married man says, "I will think about it," what he really means is that he doesn't know his wife's opinion yet.
A lady says to her doctor: "My husband has a habit of talking in his sleep! What should I give him to cure it?" The doctor replies: "Give him an opportunity to speak when he's awake."

Simple Operation
A man was seen fleeing down the hall of the hospital just
before his operation. "What's the
matter?" he was asked. He said,
"I heard the nurse say, 'It's a very simple operation, don't worry, I'm
sure it will be all right.'" "She
was just trying to comfort you, what's so frightening about that?" "She wasn't talking to me. She was talking to the doctor!"
Weed Whacker
Accident
A woman was working in her yard with the weed whacker,
when she accidentally cut off the tail of her cat. She ran screaming into the house, and told
her husband, wondering what to do. He
replied calmly, "Get the cat, and the tail, and we'll take them to
Wal-Mart." She was incredulous.
"How could that possibly help?" she asked. "Well," he replied, "they're
the world's largest retailer."
Placing Blame
At a large corporation, the CEO who was leaving presented
the new CEO with three numbered envelopes.
"Open one of these if you run up against a problem you don't think
you can solve," he said. At first
things went along smoothly. Six months
later, sales took a downturn and the CEO was catching a lot of heat. Then he remembered the envelopes. He went to his drawer and took out the first
envelope. The message was: "Blame
your predecessor." The new CEO
called a press conference and tactfully laid the blame at the feet of the
previous CEO. The press and Wall Street
responded positively, sales began to pick up, and the problem was soon behind
him. About a year later the company
experienced another dip in sales plus some product problems. Having learned from his previous experience,
the CEO quickly opened the second envelope.
The message: "Reorganize."
This he did, and the company quickly rebounded. After several consecutive profitable
quarters, the company once again fell on difficult times. The CEO went to his office, closed the door
and opened the third envelope. The
message said: "Prepare three envelopes."
Today’s Thought
TEAMWORK means never having to take all the blame
yourself.
