Friday Funny



I recently changed GP.   


After two visits and exhaustive Lab tests, he said I was doing 'fairly well' for my age. 


A little concerned about that comment, I couldn't resist asking him, 'Do you think I'll live to be 80?'


He asked, 'Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer, wine or hard liquor?'


'Oh no,' I replied. 'I'm not doing drugs, either!'


Then he asked, 'Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued Ribs?'


'I said, 'Not much... my former doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!'


'Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, boating, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?' 


'No, I don't,' I said.


He asked, 'Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lots of sex?'


'No,' I said...


He looked at me and said,.. 'Then, why the f.... do you want to live to 80?

Hey Sam, I'd love to be your live in gardener. Here's what I did in my front "Flower Bed" and how you can achieve an even better look.

1. Get a few people to share some if their perennials.

2. Plant and water for six days.

3. Allow to grow unattended from then on through fall.

4. In fall, mow the entire area to the ground using a mulching blade.

5. Wait for spring.

6. Transplant a few of the plants that have done well, while leaving some in place.

7. Repeat steps 3-6 for two more years.

8. Your garden is now so overgrown, you're going to hate me (grin).

9. At some point, decorate your garden with various cast offs.

Hope that entitles me to the en suite and adjoining craft room (ha ha).
