While working the lunch shift at a local restaurant, I watched as an elderly couple ate.
It seemed as if the man was the only one eating. First his appetizer, then his main, and then finally his dessert.
All the while with his wife just looking on, not even touching her food. Confused, I approached the woman and asked if there was anything I could get for her.
“No thank you,” came her answer, “it’s his turn for the teeth.”

Hi Muriel,
You see the sweet behavior, I see the poverty: poor oldies who don't have enough money to buy dentures, we should increase retiree's pensions LOL

One day, while strolling down the boardwalk, John bumped into an old friend of his, Rob, from high school.
“You look great John, how do you stay looking so young? Why you must be 60 already but you don’t look a day over 40!” Rob exclaimed.
“I feel like I’m 40 too!” replied John.
“That’s incredible” exclaimed Rob, “Does it run in the family? How old was your dad when he passed?”
“Did I say he was dead?” asked John.
“He’s 81 and is more active then ever. He just joined the neighbourhood basketball team!” responded John.
“Whoa! Well how old was your Grandfather when he died?”
“Did I say he died?” asked John.
Rob was amazed.
“He just had his 105th birthday and plays golf and goes swimming each day! He’s actually getting married this week!”
“Getting married?!” Rob asked. "If he’s 105, why on earth does he want to get married?!"
John looked at Rob and replied, “Did I say he wanted to?”
