Yeshua

Hello, sorry to bother you, but it is very urgent! I have a friend who came from far away and needs a place to stay. I suggested your place. I ask you to receive and love him. His name is Jesus Christ. Now say quietly: You can enter, Lord. I need you, cleanse my heart with your blood and bless my family.

If you believe in God, send this message to others. If they refuse, remember that Jesus said: "If you deny me among men, I will deny you before my Father."
HE WAS ON HIS WAY TO YOUR PLACE.

A Few More Senior Jokes Because You Forgot the Ones I Told You Before (:-)

Bob, a 70-year-old, extremely wealthy widower, showed up at the Country Club with a breathtakingly beautiful and very sexy 25 year-old blonde. She knocks everyone's socks off with her youthful sex appeal and charm and hangs over Bob's arm and listens intently to his every word.

 

His buddies at the club were all aghast.

 

At the very first chance, they cornered him and asked, "Bob, how'd you get the trophy girlfriend?"

Bob replied, "Girlfriend? She's my wife!"

They're knocked over, but continued to ask. "So, how'd you persuade her to marry you?"

 

"I lied about my age", Bob replied.

"What, did you tell her - that you were only 50?"

 

Bob smiled and said, "No, I told her I was 90."

Our five-year-old grandson couldn't wait to tell his grandfather about the movie we had watched on television, "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea."

With a look of incredulity Mark replied, "No, Grampa, it was the 20,000 leaks!"

================================

While riding the bus, my mother noticed a young man, who was holding onto the same pole, staring at her. Eventually, he said, "Excuse me. This is my stop."

Since she wasn't blocking his way, she was confused.

 

"Well," she said, "go ahead."

"And this is my pole," he said.

My mother was completely perplexed until the young man added, "I just bought it at the hardware store to hold up my shower curtain."

A woman's husband dies. He had left $30,000 to be used for an elaborate funeral.

After everything is done at the funeral home and cemetery, she tells her closest friend that "there is absolutely nothing left from the $30,000."

The friend asks, "How can that be?"

The widow says, "Well, the funeral cost was $6,500. And of course I made a donation to the church. That was $500, and I spent another $500 for the wake, food and drinks. The rest went for the memorial stone.

The friend says, "$22,500 for the memorial stone? My God, how big is it?"

The widow says, "Four and a half carats."

================================

My 50-something friend Nancy and I decided to introduce her mother to the magic of the Internet. Our first move was to access the popular "Ask Jeeves" site, and we told her it could answer any question she had.

After many years of trying, the Russian family was finally able to bring grandpa to America to live with them. The old gentleman could only speak Russian. 

Each day when the family members were at work grandpa would spend his time in the park, walking, watching the children play and feed the ducks a few crumbs he brought along. So that he would be able to get a little something to eat they taught him to say, "apple pie, coffee."

Each day he would go to the nearby deli, climb on a stool at the counter and say to the counterman, "Apple pie, coffee."

This worked well for him until one day he decided that he just couldn't take another piece of apple pie. So the family taught him to say, "Ham sandwich, coke."

He went to the park the next day looking forward to being able to order a ham sandwich instead of apple pie. Smiling to himself he climbed onto the stool at the counter and waited his turn.

When the counterman asked for his order he proudly said, "Ham sandwich, coke."

To which the counterman asked, "White or rye?"

The old man replied, "Um, apple pie, coffee."

The Old Man

A pious man, who had reached the age of 105, suddenly stopped going to synagogue. Alarmed by the old fellow's absence after so many years of faithful attendance, the Rabbi went to see him. He found him in excellent health, so the Rabbi asked, "How come after all these years we don't see you at services anymore?"

The old man lowered his voice. "I'll tell you, Rabbi," he whispered. "When I got to be 90, I expected God to take me any day. But then I got to be 95, then 100, then 105. So, I figured that God is very busy and must've forgotten about me, and I don't want to remind Him!"

==============================================At a nursing home in Victoria, a group of Senior Citizens was sitting around talking about their ailments:


"My arms are so weak I can hardly lift this cup of coffee," said one.


"Yes, I know. My cataracts are so bad I can't even SEE my coffee," replied another.


"I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck," said a third, to which several nodded weakly in agreement.


My blood pressure pills make me dizzy," another went on.
"I guess that's the price we pay for getting old," winced an old man as he slowly shook his head.


Then there was a short moment of silence.


"Well, it's not that bad," said one woman cheerfully. "Thank God we all can still drive!"

==============================================Two elderly women were out driving in a large car; neither was barely able to see over the dashboard. As they were cruising along, they came to an intersection. The stoplight was red but they just went on through. The woman in the passenger seat thought to herself, "I must be losing it, I could have sworn we just went through a red light."


After a few more minutes they came to another intersection, the light was red, and again they went right through. This time, the passenger was almost sure that the light had been red, but was also concerned that she might be seeing things. She was getting nervous and decided to pay very close attention. At the next intersection, sure enough, the light was definitely red and they went right through it.


She turned to the other woman and said, Mildred! Did you know we just ran through three red lights in a row? You could have killed us!"


Mildred turned to her and said, "Oh Crap! Am I driving?"

Before the officer could even get to the car, the man was saying, "I was not speeding, the speed limit is 22 miles per hour and that is exactly what I was doing, I was not speeding."


The police officer said, "I didn't pull you over for speeding, I pulled you over for going too slow."


"But the sign says 22."


The officer explained that he was on Interstate 22.


As the man shook his head, the officer noticed that there were three older ladies in the back of the car. All of them were sitting with their mouths hanging open and spit drooling down the side. Their faces were very white and their hair was completely messy.

In our family, my aunt is thought of as a merry old soul because she sings as she goes about her daily routine.


One day I took the time to listen to the words of her songs, only to hear, "Now let me see, where did I put my keys?" and "I've got to remember to turn off the oven."


I asked why she sang about such trivial things. "Annie," she answered, "if people hear me singing, they think I'm a happy old buzzard. If they hear me talking to myself, they'll think I'm daft and send me off to a rest home."


==============================================
When my flight was called, an elderly couple preceded me along the boarding ramp. We entered the airport bus, where a stewardess collected our boarding passes. As we were being driven along the runway the woman said, "What do you think, Pa?" He scratched his chin and replied, "Danged if I know - never seen one without wings before."


==============================================An old man decided his old wife was getting hard of hearing. So he called her doctor to make an appointment to have her hearing checked. The doctor said he could see her in two weeks, and meanwhile there's a simple, informal test the husband could do to give the doctor some idea of the dimensions of the problem.


"Here's what you do. Start about 40 feet away from her, and speak in a normal conversational tone and see if she hears you. If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and so on until you get a response."


So that evening she's in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he's in the living room, and he says to himself, "I'm about 40 feet away, let's see what happens."


"Honey, what's for supper?"


No response.


So he moves to the other end of the room, about 30 feet away. "Honey, what's for supper?"


No response.


So he moves into the dining room, about 20 feet away. "Honey, what's for supper?"


No response.


On to the kitchen door, only 10 feet away. "Honey, what's for supper?".


No response.


So he walks right up behind her. "Honey, what's for supper?"


"For the fifth time, CHICKEN!"

The other man said, "What is the name of the restaurant?"


The first man thought and thought and finally said, "What is the name of that flower you give to someone you love? You know... the one that's red and has thorns."


"Do you mean a rose?" "Yes, that's the one," replied the man. He then turned towards the kitchen and yelled, "Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we went to last night?"
==============================================After working his farm every day, an old farmer rarely had time to enjoy the large pond in the back that he had fixed up years earlier with picnic tables, horseshoe courts, and benches. So one evening he decided to go down and see how things were holding up. Much to his surprise, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee. As he came closer he saw it was a group of young women skinny dipping in his pond.


He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end. One of the women shouted to him, "We're not coming out until you leave."


The old farmer replied, "I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim or make you get out of the pond naked. I only came down to feed the alligator."


Moral: Old age and treachery will always triumph over youth and skill.


==============================================At his 103rd birthday party, my grandfather was asked if he planned to be around for his 104th.

Turning to the man next to him, he complained, "I forgot my teeth, what am I going to do now!?"


The man said, "No problem." He reached into his pocket and pulled out a pair of false teeth. "Try these," he said.


The speaker tried them on. "Too loose," he said.


The man then said, "I have another pair -- try these."


The speaker tried them on and responded, "Too tight."


The man was not taken back at all. He said, "I have one more pair. Try them."


The speaker said, "They fit perfectly."


With that, he ate his meal and gave his speech. After the dinner meeting was over, the speaker went to thank the man& who had helped him.


"I want to thank you for coming to my aid. Where is your office? I've been looking for a good dentist."


The man replied, "I'm not a dentist. I'm an undertaker."


==============================================
I had just reached the wicket to purchase tickets to an exhibit. My friend was counting out admission money when I noticed the DISCOUNT TO SENIORS sign overhead. Only then did it occur to me that I had qualified at my last birthday, the month before.


I was so excited at the prospect of a discount for the first time that I yelled out: "Wait. Don't pay full price for me. I get a seniors' discount!"


Then, quietly, I asked the ticket seller if he needed proof of my age. In a voice heard by everyone standing behind me, he said, "Lady, any woman who would yell out her age like you did doesn't have to show me proof."


==============================================MY FATHER, at age 93, had only the most basic needs and very few wants. Last fall my sister-in-law, hoping to get a little help in choosing a suitable birthday gift for him, asked, "Pa, what would you like for your birthday this year?"


"Nothing, " he replied.


"But, Pa," she kidded, "that's what we gave you last year."


"Well," he answered, "I'm still using it."


==============================================An elderly woman called 911 on her cell phone to report that her car has been broken into. She is hysterical as she explains her situation to the dispatcher: "They've stolen the stereo, the steering wheel, the brake pedal and even the accelerator!" she cried.

==============================================Our friend, who had just turned 60, was doing some spring planting with the help of his 91 year-old father. When the older man began to put up beanpoles in straight lines, the son suggested that stacking them teepee-style was better. A disagreement arose.


"Dad," our friend finally said, sighing, "this is my garden, and I want to use the teepees."


The father threw down his hoe and stomped off towards the house. "You kids!" he snorted over his shoulder. "Turn sixty and think that you know everything!"
==============================================A new wine for seniors

"I love your freckles. When I was a little girl I always wanted freckles, she said, while tracing her finger across the child's cheek. "Freckles are beautiful!"


The boy looked up, "Really?"


"Of course," said the grandmother. "Why, just name me one thing that's prettier than freckles."


The little boy thought for a moment, peered intensely into his grandma's face, and softly whispered, "Wrinkles."


==============================================

She then asked, “What do you do in Canada with your old goats?”


A spry old gentleman answered, "They send us on bus tours".

Is it true," she wanted to know, "that the medication you prescribed has to be taken for the rest of my life?"

"I'm wondering, then, just how serious is my condition because this prescription is marked 'NO REFILLS'."
==============================================A little girl is sitting on her grandpa's lap and studying the wrinkles on his old face. She gets up the nerve to rub her fingers over the wrinkles. Then she touches her own face and looks more puzzled.

"He sure did honey, a long time ago," replies her grandpa.


"Well, did God make me?" asks the little girl.


"Yes, He did, and that wasn't too long ago," answers her grandpa.


"Boy," says the little girl, "He's sure doing a lot better job these days isn't He?"

As the woman finishes her drink, the woman to her right says, "I would like to buy you a drink, too."


The old woman says, "Thank you," to the woman on her right.


"Bartender, I want a Scotch with two drops of water."


"Coming up," says the bartender.


As she finishes that drink, the man to her left says, "I would like to buy you one, too."


The old woman says, "Thank you, sir. Bartender, I want another Scotch with two drops of water."


"Coming right up," the bartender says. As he gives her the drink, he says, "Ma'am, I'm dying of curiosity. Why the Scotch with only two drops of water?"


The old woman replies, "Sonny, when you're my age, you've learned how to hold your liquor. Water, however, is a whole other issue."


==============================================
One Sunday morning, a mother went in to wake her son and tell him it was time to get ready for church, to which he replied, "I'm not going."


"Why not?" she asked.


"I'll give you two good reasons," he said. "One, they don't like me, and two, I don't like them."


His mother replied, "I'll give YOU two good reasons why YOU SHOULD go to church. (1) You're 59 years old, and (2) you're the pastor!"
