| Three elderly women are talking about their troubles. "Sixty is the worst age to be," said Ruth, the 60-year-old, "You always feel like you have to pee. And most of the time nothing happens." "Ah, that's nothing," said the 70-year-old, Maxine. "When you're 70, you don't have a bowel movement anymore. You take laxatives, eat bran, you sit on the toilet all day and nothing happens." "Actually," said Gilda, the 80-year-old, "Eighty is the worst age of all." "Do you have trouble peeing too?" asked Ruth. "No, I pee every morning at 6 a.m. I pee like a racehorse; no problem at all." "Do you have trouble with your bowel movements?" Maxine questioned. "No, I have one every morning at 6:30 a.m," Gilda responded. Puzzled with this, Ruth said, "Let's get this straight. You pee every morning at 6 a.m. and poop every morning at 6:30 a.m. So what's so tough about being 80?" "I don't wake up until 7." |
