Three men were discussing aging at the nursing home. Sixty is
the worst age to be," said the 60- year-old. You always feel like you
have to pee. And most of the time, you stand at the toilet and nothing comes
out!"
"Ah, that's nothin'," said the 70-year-old. When you're
seventy, you don't have a bowel movement anymore.
You take laxatives, eat
bran, you sit on the toilet all day and nothin' comes out!"
"Actually," said the 80-year-old, "Eighty is the worst age
of all."
"Do you have trouble peeing too?" asked the 60-year-old.
"No, not really. I pee every morning at 6:00. I pee like a
racehorse on a flat rock; no problem at all."
"Do you have trouble having a bowel movement?"
"No, I have one every morning at 6:30."
With great exasperation, the 60-year-old said, "Let me get
this straight.
You pee every morning at 6:00 and poop every morning at
6:30.
So what's so tough about being 80?"
"I don't wake up until 7:00."
