Golf is Good for You
An 80-year old guy 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 yrs 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, doctor asks, "You mean you're 80 years old and your grandfather's
still living! Just how old is he anyway?"
"He's 118 years old," says the old golfer.
The doctor is getting frustrated at this point and says, "So, I guess he
went golfing with you this morning too?"
"No. Grandpa couldn't go this morning because he just got married."
The doctor can hardly believe it. "Got married!! Why would a 118
year-old guy want to get married?"
"Who said he wanted to?"
