Keeping your blood flowing is good not only for your physical health but also for keeping your mind sharp. Above all, living a good clean life seems to contribute to longevity. In the joke below, one old man shares his secret to being in excellent shape at any age, and even tells us the special reward he gets. However, his wife doesn’t necessarily agree. Enjoy this hilarious joke.
An 80-year-old man went for his annual checkup and the doctor said, “Friend, for your age, you’re in the best shape I’ve seen.” The old feller replied, “Yep. It comes from clean living. Why I know I live a good, clean, spiritual life.” The doctor asked, “What makes you say that?” The old man replied, “If I didn’t live a good, clean life the Lord wouldn’t turn the bathroom light on for me every time I get up in the middle of the night.” The doc was concerned. “You mean when you get up in the night to go to the bathroom, the Lord Himself turns on the light for you?” “Yep,” the old man said, “Whenever I get up to go to the bathroom, the Lord turns the light on for me.”
Well, the doctor didn’t say anything else, but when the old man’s wife came in for her check-up, he felt he had to let her know what her husband said. “I just want you to know,” the doctor said. “Your husband is in fine physical shape, but I’m worried about his mental condition He told me that every night when he gets up to go to the bathroom, the Lord turns the light on for him.” “He what?” she cried. “He said every night when he gets up to go to the bathroom, the Lord turns the light on for him,” the doctor repeated. “Aha!!!” she exclaimed. “So he’s the one who’s been peeing in the refrigerator!”
