I'm a bit of a ponderer

 

 

As I’m lying around my house, pondering the problems of the world …. 

I realise that at my age I don't really give a rat's thingy anymore.

 

If walking is good for your health, the postman would be immortal.  

A whale swims all day, only eats fish, drinks water, but is still fat.  

A rabbit runs and hops and only lives 5 years, while …..     

A tortoise doesn't run and does mostly nothing, yet it lives for 150 years.  

And people tell me to exercise??

I don't think so.

 

Now that I'm a little older here's what I've discovered:   

 

1. I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.
2. My wild oats are mostly enjoyed with prunes and all-bran.
3. I finally got my head together, and now my flipping body is falling apart.  

4. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.
5. If God wanted me to touch my toes, he'd have put them on my knees.

6. If all is not lost, then where the heck is it?
7. It was a whole lot easier to get older, than to get wiser.  

8. Some days, you're the top dog; some days you're the lamp post.  

9. I wish the buck really did stop here; I sure could use a few of them.  

10. Kids in the back seat cause accidents.  

11. Accidents in the back seat cause kids.    

12. It's hard to make a comeback when you haven't been anywhere.
13. The world only beats a path to your door when you're in the bathroom.  

14. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.  

15. When I'm finally holding all the right cards, everyone wants  to  play bingo.  

16. It’s not hard to meet expenses . . . they're everywhere.  

17. The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth.  

18. These days, I  spend a lot of time thinking about the hereafter. 

I go somewhere to get something, and then wonder what I'm "here after".
19.. Funny, I don't remember being absent-minded.

"The Ponderer"

Oh well, I'm the type of guy who will never settle down
Where pretty girls are well, you know that I'm around
I kiss 'em and I love 'em 'cause to me they're all the same
I hug 'em and I squeeze 'em they don't even know my name

They call me the Ponderer
Yeah, the Ponderer
I roam around, around, around
 
Oh well, there's Flo on my left and there's Mary on my right
And Janie is the girl with that I'll be with tonight
And when she asks me, which one I love the best?
I tear open my shirt I got Rosie on my chest
 
'Cause I'm a Ponderer
Yeah, a Ponderer
I roam around, around, around

'Cause I'm a Ponderer
Yeah, a Ponderer

They weren't in my pockets.

 

Suddenly I realised I must have left them in the car.

Frantically, I headed for the Car Park. 

My wife has scolded me many times for leaving my keys in the car's ignition. 

She's afraid that the car could be stolen. 

As I looked around the Car Park, I realised she was right. 

The Car Park was empty. I immediately called the police.  I gave them my location, confessed that I had left my keys in the car, and that it had been stolen.

Then I made the most difficult call of all to my wife: 
"I left my keys in the car and it's been stolen."
There was a moment of silence. I thought the call had been disconnected, but then I heard her voice.  "
Are you kidding me?" she barked, "I dropped you off!"
Now it was my turn to be silent. 
Embarrassed, I said, "Well, come and get me."
She  retorted,"I will, as soon as I convince this nice Policeman that I didn't steal your flipping car!"
 
Welcome to my golden years...

Very prophetic and all very true, OP. Are you by any chance a descendant of Socrates ? Anyway, kudos to your (two) posts.

A man was brought in to the hospital intensive care ward, put in a bed, tubes coming out everywhere. A week later, another man was admitted, in a similar condition. Both lay there, machines pinging, tubes poking etc. a couple more weeks before one of them had the strength to raise his hand and point to himself and say: "Scottish" The other signaled he had heard, raised his own hand, and said "Irish" This act tired them out so badly it was a week before the first summoned up the strength to say: "Glasgow" Again the second replied in a weedy frail voice "Dublin" Once more, the strain was too much for them both and they passed out. Days passed before the first man managed to again point to himself and say: "Jimmy" Replied the other: "Paddy" A few hours later, Jimmy managed to point to himself again and rasp out weakly: "Cancer" Paddy responded: "Sagittarius"

“Interestingly, according to modern astronomers, space is finite. This is a very comforting thought, particularly for people who can never remember where they have left the car keys.”

A wife was in bed with her lover when she heard her husband's key in the door. "Stay where you are," she said. "He's so drunk he won't even notice you're in bed with me." Sure enough, the husband jumped into bed none the wiser, but a few minutes later, through a drunken haze, he saw six feet sticking out at the end of the bed. He turned to his wife: "Hey, there are six feet in this bed. There should only be four. What's going on?" "Nonsense," said the wife. "You're so drunk you miscounted. Get out of bed and try again. You can see better from over there." The husband climbed out of bed and counted. "One, two, three, four… You're right."

Mr Chow calls into work and says, "Hey I no come work today, I really sick. Got Headache, Stomach ache and legs hurt, I no come to work."

The Boss says "You know something Ho Chow, I really need you today. When I feel sick like you do, I go to my wife and tell her to give me sex. That makes everything better and I go to work. You try that."

Two hours later Ho Chow calls again. "I do what you say and I feel great, I be at work soon............................you got nice house"
