Sports that never took off

One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Johnny standing in the foyer of the church staring up at a large plaque. It was covered with names and small American flags mounted on either side of it. The six-year old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so the pastor walked up, stood beside the little boy, and said quietly, 'Good morning, Johnny.'

'Good morning Pastor,' he replied, still focused on the plaque. 'Pastor, what is this? '

The pastor said, 'Well son, it's a memorial to all the young men and women who died in the service.'

Soberly, they just stood together, staring at the large plaque. Finally, little Johnny's voice, barely audible and trembling with fear asked,

'Which service, the 9:00 or the 11:00?'

Observations on Growing Older

Your spouse is counting on you to remember things you don't remember.

Going out is good. Coming home is better!

When people say you look "Great" they add "For your age!"

Your spouse sleeps better on a lounge chair with the TV blaring than he does in bed. It's called his "pre-sleep".

You read 100 pages into a book before you realize you've already read it.

You have 3 sizes of clothes in your closet, 2 of which you will never wear.

But old is good in some things:
old songs
old movies
And best of all, OLD FRIENDS!
