Cars and Old Age
======================
A young boy had just gotten his driving permit. He asked his
father, who was a minister, if they could discuss the use of the
car. His father took him to his study and said to him, "I'll
make a deal with you. You bring your grades up, study your
Bible a little and get your hair cut and we'll talk about it."
After about a month the boy came back and again asked his father
if they could discuss use of the car. They again went to the
father's study where his father said, "Son, I've been real proud
of you. You have brought your grades up, you've studied your
Bible diligently, but you didn't get your hair cut!"
The young man waited a moment and replied, "You know Dad, I've
been thinking about that. You know, Samson had long hair, Moses
had long hair, Noah had long hair, and even Jesus had long
hair...."
To which his father replied,
"Yes, and they walked every where they went!"
Three old sisters - 92, 94,and 96 years old, respectively, all
lived together.
One day the oldest drew a bath. She put one foot in the water,
paused, then called downstairs to her sisters,
"Am I getting in the tub or out of the tub?"
The middle sister started up the stairs to help, then paused and
called back downstairs, "Was I going up or coming down?"
The youngest sister, who was sitting at the kitchen table having
tea, said, "I guess I'll have to help.
I hope I never get that forgetful!" and knocked on wood.
She got up then, paused, and called,
"I'll come up as soon as I see who's at the door!"
