A 60-year-old man went to the doctor for a check-up. The
doctor told him, “You’re in terrific shape. There’s nothing
wrong with you. Why, you might live forever. You have the
body of a 35 year old. By the way, how old was your father
when he died?”

The 60 year old responded, “Did I say he was dead?”

The doctor was surprised and asked, “How old is he and is he
very active?”

The 60 year old responded, “Well, he is 82 years old and he
still goes skiing three times a season and surfing three times
a week during the summer.”

The doctor couldn’t believe it. “Well, how old was your
grandfather when he died?”

The 60 year old responded again, “Did I say he was dead?”

The doctor was astonished. He said, “You mean to tell me you
are 60 years old and both your father and your grandfather are
alive? Is your grandfather very active?”

The 60 year old said, “He goes skiing at least once a season
and surfing once a week during the summer. Not only that,” said
the patient, “my grandfather is 106 years old, and next week he
is getting married again.”

The doctor said, “At 106 years, why on earth would your grandfather
want to get married?”

His patient looked up at the doctor and said, “Did I say he wanted to?”
