A joke about a senior citizen...good twist..

An elderly gentleman had serious hearing problems for a number of years. He was very stubborn about going to the doctor because of the "looks of those things", but finally went and the doctor was able to have him fitted for a set of very tiny hearing aids that allowed the gentleman to hear 100%. (and you really couldn't see them) The elderly gentleman went back in a month to the doctor and the Doctor said, "Your hearing is perfect. Your family must be really pleased that you can hear again." The gentleman replied, "Oh, I haven't told my family yet. I just sit around and listen to their conversations. I've changed my will three times!"

No one knew when I had them in my ears because my long hair was a perfect cover up. I didn't lose any friends but a few false friends (the ones who hate to drive) lost a traveling/shopping companion.

This joke would be funny if it weren't so true.
