Mental health ¤¤¤

Just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to, doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have.

Ralph and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Ralph suddenly jumped into the deep end.

He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there.
Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled him out. When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Edna’s heroic act she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her to be mentally stable.
When she went to tell Edna the news she said, ’Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you’re being discharged, since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of the person you love… I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness.

The bad news is, Ralph hung himself in the bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he’s dead.’

Edna replied, ’He didn’t hang himself, I put him there to dry.. How soon can I go home?’

The Parrot ¤¤¤

A young man named John received a parrot as a gift.

The parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary.
Every word out of the bird’s mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity.

John tried and tried to change the bird’s attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft 
music and anything else he could think of to ’clean up’ the bird’s vocabulary.
Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back.

John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even more rude.

John, in desperation, threw up his hand,grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer.

For a few minutes the parrot squawked, kicked and screamed. 

Then suddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute.
Fearing that he’d hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer.

The parrot calmly stepped out onto John’s outstretched arms and said

”I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions.

I’m sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behaviour.”
John was stunned at the change in the bird’s attitude.
As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behaviour, the bird spoke-up, very softly,

 

”May I ask what the turkey did?”

A nice  contribution from Paul in Provence

Gotta love us seniors… ¤¤¤

Who says senior citizens don’t wear stylish clothes. Hah!! 




During a visit to my doctor, I asked him, ”How do you determine whether or not an older person should be put in an old age home?”

”Well,” he said, ”we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the person to empty the bathtub.”

”Oh, I understand,” I said. ”A normal person would use the bucket because it is bigger than the spoon or the teacup.”

”No” he said. ”A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?”

ARE YOU GOING TO PASS THIS ON ? OR DO YOU WANT THE BED NEXT TO MINE? :

Senior fun ¤¤¤


This is NOT a joke. If you were able to pass these 3 tests, you can cancel your annual visit to your neurologist. Your brain is great and you’re far from having a close relationship with Alzheimer.

Congratulations!

 

Oh. One more test….

Find the 44th USA President. 

 

Well, congratulations, you’re not colour blind either!
