This short video at the start of Super Bowl 39.
Oh how things have changed! GOD Bless America.

Gotta Love The Seniors!!!
Read all the way to the end it's worth it
Who says senior citizens don't wear stylish clothes. Hah!
During a visit to my doctor, I asked him,
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMNM MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
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!
SENIOR CITIZENS ARE THE NATION'S LEADING CARRIERS OF AIDS!

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? :

Give me the grace to see a joke,
To get some humor out of life,
And pass it on to other folk.
I'm only sending this to my 'old' friends.
