The Facts of Life
An 80-year old man was having his annual checkup and
the doctor
asked him how he was feeling.
"I've never been better!" he boasted. "I've got an
eighteen
year old bride who's pregnant and having my child!
What do
you think about that?"
The doctor considered this for a moment, then said,
"Let me
tell you a story. I knew a guy who was an avid
hunter. He
never missed a season. But one day, he went out in a
bit of
a hurry, and he accidentally grabbed his umbrella
instead of
his gun." The doctor continued, "So he was in the
woods, and
suddenly a grizzly bear appeared in front of him! He
raised
up his umbrella, pointed it at the bear and squeezed
the handle.
And do you know what happened?" the doctor queried.
Dumbfounded, the old man replied, "No."
The doctor continued, "The bear dropped dead in front
of him!"
"That's impossible!" exclaimed the old man. "Someone
else
must have shot that bear."
"That's kind of what I'm getting at," replied the
doctor.
