An Old Biker”....

So an 80 year old man went to the doctor for a check-up and the doctor was amazed at what good shape the guy was in....

The doctor asked, "To what do you attribute your good health?"....

The old timer said, "I'm a biker and that's why I'm in such good shape”....

“I'm up well before daylight on Sundays and out sliding around corners, "shootin" sand washes and riding up and down the steepest, wildest mountains I can find at the crack of dawn”....

The doctor said, "Well, I'm sure that helps, but there's got to be more to it. How old was your dad when he died?"....

The old biker said, "Who said my dad's dead?"....

The doctor said, "You mean you're 80 years old and your dad's still alive? How old is he?"....

The old biker said, "He's 99 years old and, in fact, he went riding with me this Sunday, and that's why he's still alive... he's a biker too”....

The doctor said, "Well, that's great, but I'm sure there's more to it”...

How about your dad's dad?....

How old was he when he died?....

The old biker said, "Who said my grandpa's dead?"....

The doctor said, "You mean you're 80 years old and your grandfather's still living!”....

“How old is he?"....

The old biker replied, "He's 117 years old”....

The doctor was getting frustrated at this point and said, "I guess he went riding with you this Sunday too?"....

The old timer said, "No... Grandpa couldn't go this week because he got married”....

The Doctor said in amazement, "Got married!! Good Lord!!!”....

“Why would a 117-year-old guy want to get married?"....

To this the old biker smiled and answered,

"Who said he wanted to?"

Thoughts on Life::

A 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud man, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with his hair fashionably combed and shaved perfectly, even though he is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today. His wife of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary.

After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, he smiled sweetly when told his room was ready. As he maneuvered his walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of his tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on his window.

"I love it," he stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.

"Mr. Jones, you haven't seen the room; just wait."

"That doesn't have anything to do with it," he replied. "Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged. It's how I arrange my mind. I already decided to love it. It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open, I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away.. Just for this time in my life..."

Today's Quotes:: "The only thing you're taking out of here is your spirit and your soul, so we need to be conscious to try and develop that part of ourselves, because we're all spiritual creatures."

"If you feel like loving me, if you've got the notion, I second that emotion."

"Mistakes, I know I've made a few. But I'm only human, you've made mistakes, too."

"A taste of honey is worse than none at all."

"Before you ask some girl for her hand now, keep your freedom for as long as you can now. My Mama told me, you better shop around."

"With a heart that is truthful, keeping you youthful."

"I don't ever balk at being considered a Motown person, because Motown is the greatest musical event that ever happened in the history of music."

- Smokey Robinson

Four old guys are walking down a street when they see a sign that reads Old Timers Bar - ALL drinks 10 cents.

They look at each other and then go in, thinking this is too good to be true.

The old bartender says in a voice that carries across the room, "Come on in and let me pour one for you! What'll it be, gentlemen?"

There's a fully stocked bar, so each of the men orders a martini.

In no time the bartender serves up four iced martinis shaken, not stirred and says, "That's 10 cents each, please."

The four guys stare at the bartender for a moment, then at each other. They can't believe their good luck. They pay the 40 cents, finish their martinis, and order another round.

Again, four excellent martinis are produced, with the bartender again saying, "That's 40 cents, please."

They pay 40 cents, but their curiosity gets the better of them. They've each had two martinis and haven't even spent a dollar yet.

Finally one of them says, "How can you afford to serve martinis as good as these for a dime apiece?"

"I'm a retired tailor from Phoenix," the bartender says, "and I always wanted to own a bar. Last year I hit the Lottery Jackpot for $125 million and decided to open this place. Every drink costs a dime. Wine, Liquor, beer it's all the same."

"Wow! That's some story!" one of the men says.

As the four of them sip their martinis, they can't help noticing seven other people at the end of the bar who don't have any drinks in front of them and haven't ordered anything the whole time they've been there.

Nodding at the seven at the end of the bar, one of the men ask the Bartender, "What's with them?"

The bartender says, "They're retired people from Florida. They're waiting for Happy Hour when drinks are half-price.

Tent Worms::: Tent caterpillars are readily recognized because they are social, colorful, diurnal and build conspicuous silk tents in the branches of host trees. Some species, such as the eastern tent caterpillar, Malacosoma americanum, and caterpillars of the small eggar moth, Eriogaster lanestris, build a single large tent which is typically occupied through the whole of the larval stage, while others build a series of small tents that are sequentially abandoned. Whereas tent caterpillars make their tents in the nodes and branches of a tree's limbs, fall webworms enclose leaves and small branches at the ends of the limbs.

The spring haze.
The scent already in the air.
The moon and ume.

“Thanks for all”
Expressing my gratitude to blossoms
At the parting.

The trooper and Billy Graham.... More Jokes.... PNEIS...... Perspective... Not much #Wisdom Today..Mostly #jokes

 

Before he died, Billy Graham was returning to Charlotte after a speaking engagement and when his plane arrived there was a limousine waiting to transport him to his home. As he prepared to get into the limo, he stopped and spoke to the driver .

"You know," he said, "I am 87 years old and I have never driven a limousine. Would you mind if I drove it for a while?"

The driver said, "No problem. Be my guest!" Billy gets into the driver's seat and they head off down the highway. A short distance away sat a rookie State Trooper operating his first speed trap.

The long black limo went by him doing 70 in a 55 mph zone. The trooper pulled out and easily caught the limo and he got out of his patrol car to begin the procedure.

The young trooper walked up to the driver's door and when the glass was rolled down, he was surprised to see who was driving.

He immediately excused himself and went back to his car and called his supervisor. He told the supervisor, "I know we are supposed to enforce the law, but I also know that important people are given certain courtesies. I need to know what I should do because I have stopped a very important person."

The supervisor asked, "Is it the governor?" The young trooper said, "No, he's more important than that." The supervisor said, "Oh, so it's the president." The young trooper said, "No, he's even more important than that."

The supervisor finally asked, "Well then, who is it?"

The young trooper said, "I think it's Jesus, because he's got Billy Graham for a chauffeur!"
