THE OLD TURKEY HUNTER….
July 19th, 2005
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, “What do you attribute to your good health?”
The old timer said, “I’m a turkey hunter and that’s why I’m in
such good shape. I’m up well before daylight and out chasing
turkeys up and down the mountains.”
The doctor said, “Well, I’m sure that helps but there has got
to be more to it. How old was your dad when he died?”
The old timer 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 timer said, “He’s 100 yrs old and in fact he hunted
turkey with me this morning and that’s why he’s still alive..he’s
a turkey hunter.”
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 timer 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 timer said, “He’s 118 yrs old.”
The doctor is getting frustrated at this point and said, “I guess
he went turkey hunting with you this morning too?”
The old timer said, “No..Grandpa couldn’t go this morning because
he got married.”
The doctor said in amazement, “Got married!! What would a guy
118 years old want to get married for?”
The old timer said, “Who said he wanted to get married?
