Age Test
Posted: Sun Jul 25, 2010 10:46 pm
During a visit to my doctor, I asked him,
"How do you determine whether or not an older person should be put in an old age home?"
"Well," he said, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the person to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," I said. "A normal person would use the bucket because it is bigger than the spoon or the teacup."
He shook his head and said (this is the punch line by the way) "No - a normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?"
Continuing on - seniors can also be stylish dressers !
