"On Benefits Of Golfing"
An 80-year old man goes to the doctor for a check-up.
The doctor is amazed at what good shape the guy is
in and asks, "How do you stay in such great physical
condition?"
"I'm a golfer," says the old guy, "and that's why I'm
in such good shape. I'm up well before daylight and
out golfing up and down the fairways."
"Well," says the doctor, "I'm sure that helps, but
there's got to be more to it. How old was your dad
when he died?"
"Who said my dad's dead?"
The doctor is amazed. "You mean you're 80 years
old and your dad's still alive. How old is he?"
"He's 100 years old," says the old golfer. "In fact
he golfed with me this morning, and that's why
he's still alive . . he's a golfer too."
"Well," the doctor says, "that's great, but I'm sure
there's more to it than that. How about your dad's
dad? How old was he when he died?"
"Who said my grandpa's dead?"
Stunned, the doctor asks, "You mean you're 80
years old and your grandfather is still living!
Incredible, how old is he?"
"He's 118 years old," says the old golfer .
The doctor is getting frustrated at this point, "So,
I guess he went golfing with you this morning too?"
"No. Grandpa couldn't go this morning because
he's getting married today."
At this point the doctor is close to losing it, "Getting
married! Why would a 118 year-old guy want to get
married?"
"Who said he wanted to? The bride is pregnant..."
