Old age jokes

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

We’re over the hill but don’t feel sad
This side of the hill ain’t all that bad.
So give us “five” and then a smile
To us who have been here for awhile.

With by-pass pain and mended hip
And plumbing fixtures prone to drip;
We all may seem a sorry lot,
But we rejoice for what we’ve got.

We have each day and what it brings
And on our pensions live like kings.
For the press that accuses what we take
To coin a phrase, “Let them eat cake.”

We’ve paid our share for unused knowledge
As the kids are now all done with college.
We complain to them about our health
As they worry about our dwindling wealth.

And though our wardrobes may be plain
We’ll suffer no more labor or pain.
Now it’s with cane we do our strut
And if we can’t drive - we still can putt.

We’re mean and tough, meet all demands,
Why, M&M’s melt in our hands.
Yes, we’re still here, and it does delight us
That you join our fight against arthritis.

But we ask you make a pledge today
That you’ll be careful what you say.
We have to spread “Over the Hill” fear
Or we’ll have those young folks over here.

Harry and Zoo

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

Harry starts his new job at the zoo and he is given three tasks, the first is to clear the exotic fish pool of weeds. Harry starts on this when suddenly a bloody great fish leaps out and bites him. Harry is not going to let a fish have a go so he beats the offending fish to death. Upon doing so he realises that his boss is not going to be best pleased, so Harry tries to think of a way to hide the dead fish. He hits on the brilliant idea of giving the fish to the lions as lions will eat anything, so Harry feeds the fish to the lions.

Harry then moves on to his second job, which is to clearout the monkey house. Harry gets stuck in and a couple of chimps start throwing shit at him. Harry is not amused and bashes the chimps with his spade, killing them instantly. Harry is shitting himself, so what does he do? he feeds the chimps to the lions, because lions eat anything.

Anyway, Harry moves on to his last job, which is to collect honey from some South American bees. Harry starts on this and gets attacked by the bees, as you can guess Harry mashes the swarm of bees. By this point he is not too worried about the death of bees as he knows what to do, you guessed it, feed them to the lions, because lions eat anything.

Later that day a new lion arrives at the zoo, it wanders up to another lion and asks ‘what’s the food like here?’ the other lion responds, “Absolutely brilliant, today I had fish and chimps with mushy bees!”
