Check-up

"A 60-year-old man goes to the doctor for a check-up.

The doctor tells him, “You’re in terrific shape. There’s nothing wrong with you. Why, you might live forever.”

“You have the body of a 35 year old. By the way, how old was your father when he died?”

The 60 year old responds, “Who said he is dead?”

The doctor is surprised and asks, “How old is he and is he very active?”

The 60 year old responds, “Well, he is 82 years old and he still goes skiing three times a season and surfing three times a week during the summer.”

The doctor can’t believe it. “Well, how old was your grandfather when he died?”

The 60 year old responds, “Who said he is dead?”

The doctor is astonished and says, “You mean to tell me you are 60 years old and both your father and your grandfather are alive? Is your grandfather very active?”

The 60 year old says, “He goes skiing at least once a season and surfing once a week during the summer.

“Not only that,” says the patient, “my grandfather is 106 years old, and next week he is getting married again.”

The doctor says, “At 106 years old, why on earth would your grandfather want to get married?”

His patient looks up at the doctor and says, “Who said he wants to?”"
