Old
Aunt Dora went to her doctor to see what could be done about her constipation. "It's terrible," she said, "I haven't moved my
bowels in a week."
"I see. Have you done anything about it?" asked the doctor.
"Naturally," she replied, "I sit in the bathroom for a half-hour in the morning and again at night."
"No," the doctor said, "I mean do you take anything?"
"Naturally," she answered, "I take a book."

Three elderly gentlemen were talking about what their
grandchildren would be saying about them fifty years from now.
"I would like my grandchildren to say, 'He was
successful in business'," declared the first man.
"Fifty years from now," said the second,
"I want them to say, 'He was a loyal family man'."
Turning to the third gent, the first gent asked, "So
what do you want them to say about you in fifty years?"
"Me?" the third man replied. "I want them
all to say, "He certainly looks good for his age'!"

Last October, after much deliberation, I bought a
magnolia tree from our local nursery. After only a few weeks I noticed that the
leaves had started to shrivel and the tree appeared to be on its last legs in
spite of my tender care.
So I took some leaf samples and marched back to the
nursery to demand an explanation or get my money back.
"I know exactly what's wrong with your
magnolia," said the manager.
"Good!" I exclaimed. "What's it suffering
from?"
You can imagine how stupid I felt when he simply said,
"Autumn."
