A Little Elder Humor
A very elderly gentleman
(mid-nineties), very well dressed, hair well-groomed, great looking suit,
flower in his lapel smelling slightly
of a good after shave presenting a well looked-after image, walks into an
upscale cocktail lounge. Seated at the bar is an elderly
looking lady (mid-eighties). The gentleman walks over, sits along side of
her, orders a drink, takes a sip, turns to her and says,
"So tell me, do I come here often?"

An elderly gentleman had serious hearing problems for a number of years. He
went to the doctor and the doctor was able to have him
fitted for a set of hearing aids that allowed the gentleman to hear 100%.
The elderly gentleman went back in a month to the doctor and
the doctor said, "Your hearing is perfect. Your family must be really
pleased that you can hear again." The gentleman replied,
"Oh, I haven't told my family yet. I just sit around and listen to the
conversations. I've changed my will three times!"

Two elderly gentlemen from a retirement center were sitting on a bench under
a tree when one turns to the other and says, "Slim, I'm 83
years old now and I'm just full of aches and pains. I know you're about my
age. How do you feel?" Slim says, "I feel just like a newborn baby."
"Really!? Like a new-born baby!?" "Yep. No hair, no teeth, and I think I
just wet my pants."

An elderly couple had dinner at another couple's house, and after eating,
the wives left the table and went into the kitchen. The two gentlemen
were talking, and one said, "Last night we went out to a new restaurant and
it was really great. I would recommend it very highly." The other
man said, "What is the name of the restaurant?" The first man thought and
thought and finally said, "What is the name of that flower you give
to someone you love? You know... the one that's red and has thorns." "Do you
mean a rose?" "Yes, that's the one," replied the man. He then
turned towards the kitchen and yelled, "Rose, what's the name of that
restaurant we went to last night?"

Hospital regulations require a wheelchair for patients being discharged.
However, while working as a student nurse, I found one elderly
gentleman--already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his
feet--who insisted he didn't need my help to leave the hospital.
After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the
elevator. On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him.
"I don't know," he said. "She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out
of her hospital gown!"
