> Arthur is 81 years old.
>
> He's played golf every day since his retirement 16 years ago.
>
> One day he arrives home looking downcast.
>
> "That's it," he tells his wife. "I'm giving up golf. My eyesight has got
> so bad. Once I've hit the ball, I can't see where it went."
>
> His wife sympathizes. As they sit down, she has a suggestion: "Why don't
> you take my brother with you, and give it one more try."
>
> "That's no good," sighs Arthur. "Your brother is 93 years old. He can't
> help."
>
> "He may be a ninety three," says the wife, "but his eyesight is perfect."
>
> So the next day, Arthur heads off to the golf course with his
> brother-in-law.
>
> He tees up, takes an almighty swing, and squints down the fairway.
>
> He turns to the brother-in-law. "Did you see the ball?"
>
> "Of course I did!", says the brother-in-law. "I have perfect eyesight."
>
> "Where did it go?" asks Arthur.
>
> "Can't remember." _________________

and another one (short but funny):
I just got an email telling me I can still have sex at 83.
That's good cause I live in number 81 and it won't be far to walk home afterward. _________________
