There was an old man who was known for his wisdom.
One day, a young man approached him and asked, “Sir, what is the secret to a long and happy life?”
The old man replied, “Well, there are three things you need to do. First, you need to eat healthy food and exercise regularly. Second, you need to surround yourself with people you love and who love you. And finally, you need to keep your mind active and always be learning something new.”
The young man was impressed and asked, “And how old are you, sir?”
The old man replied, “I’m 100 years old.”
The young man was amazed and asked, “And what’s your secret to living so long?”
The old man grinned and said, “I lie about my age!”
Dad Told Little Johnny All About It
7-year-old little Johnny came home from school one day and asked his dad:
“Daddy, where do I come from?”
His poor father started sweating and he knew that one day his son would want to know all about ‘it’.
He looked around for his wife to explain, but she was out at the shops.
It was no good, his father thought.
‘It’s time he knew’ and took the young lad to one side and explained how mummy and daddy met and then married and wanted to produce a baby and, well, you know the rest.
After much awkwardness and embarrassment, after nearly an hour, the dad finally reached the point in the story where his son was born in a hospital.
The young boy’s face just stared back, mouth open and speechless.
“So, tell me, son, why do you ask?”
The boy, still in shock, said.
“Billy Clark in our class, said he was from Brisbane!”
