This Night Owl Blog has given so much! It is a fun place, we don't bash and we have fun being "tedious"! We offer advice, give love, lots of free food and an open forum which can be about anything that is important, thought provoking or just plain silly. And sometimes we just March (some to different drummers, but all together). :) It is not about a single person, it is about all the people on any given day blended together.....Goldie!

The IRS Decides To Audit Grandpa
by Dianne
The IRS
decides to audit Grandpa and summons him to the IRS office.
The IRS
auditor was not surprised when Grandpa showed up with his attorney.
The auditor
said, “Well, sir, you have an extravagant lifestyle and no full-time
employment, which you explain by saying that you win money gambling. I'm
not sure the IRS finds that believable.”
“I'm
a great gambler and I can prove it,” says Grandpa. “How about
a demonstration?”
The auditor
thinks for a moment and said, “Okay. Go ahead.”
Grandpa
says, “I'll bet you a thousand dollars that I can bite my own eye.”
The auditor
thinks a moment and says, “It's a bet.”
Grandpa
removes his glass eye and bites it. The auditor's jaw drops.
Grandpa
says, “Now, I'll bet you two thousand dollars that I can bite my other
eye.”
Now the
auditor can tell Grandpa isn't blind, so he takes the bet.
Grandpa
removes his dentures and bites his good eye.
The stunned
auditor now realizes he has wagered and lost three grand and with Grandpa's
attorney as a witness. He starts to get nervous.
“Want
to go double or nothing?” Grandpa says, “I'll bet you six
thousand dollars that I can stand on one side of your desk and pee into
that wastebasket on the other side, and never get a drop anywhere in
between.”
The
auditor, twice burned, is cautious now, but he looks carefully and decides
there's no way this old guy could possibly manage that stunt, so he agrees
again.
Grandpa
stands beside the desk and unzips his pants, but although he strains mightily,
he can't make the stream reach the wastebasket on the other side, so he pretty
much urinates all over the auditor's desk.
The auditor
leaps with joy, realizing that he has just turned a major loss into a huge win.
But
Grandpa's own attorney moans and puts his head in his hands.
“Are
you okay?” the auditor asks.
“Not
really,” says the attorney. “This morning, when Grandpa told
me he'd been summoned for an audit, he bet me twenty-five thousand dollars that
he could come in here and pee all over your desk and that you'd be happy
about it!”

When my friend told me about this song yesterday, it had 11.2 million hits. Now it has 13.3 million as I post it. My son says he's going to teach his kids this song instead of Old McDonald's Farm. Crazy!!!

THIS COULD BE US SOMEDAY
by Dianne
Couple in their nineties are both having problems remembering things. During a check-up, the doctor tells them that they're physically okay, but they might want to start writing things down to help them remember ..
Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from his chair.
'Want anything while I'm in the kitchen?' he asks.
'Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?'
'Sure.'
'Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?' she asks.
'No, I can remember it.'
'Well, I'd like some strawberries on top, too. Maybe you should write it down, so as not to forget it?'
He says, 'I can remember that. You want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries.'
'I'd also like whipped cream. I'm certain you'll forget that, write it down?' she asks.
Irritated, he says, 'I don't need to write it down, I can remember it! Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream - I got it, for goodness sake!'
Then he toddles into the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, the old man returns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs. She stares at the plate for a moment.
'Where's my toast?'
An elderly couple had dinner at another couple's house, and after eating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen.
The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, 'Last night we went out to a new restaurant and it was really great. I would recommend it very highly.'
The other man said, 'What is the name of the restaurant?'
The first man thought and thought and finally said, 'What’s the name of that flower you give to someone you love? You know, the one that's red and has thorns.'
'Do you mean a rose?'
'Yes, that's the one,' replied the man. He then turned towards the kitchen and yelled, 'Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we went to last night?'
Hospital regulations require a wheel chair for patients being discharged. However, while working as a student nurse, I found one elderly gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his feet, who insisted he didn't need my help to leave the hospital.
After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the elevator.
On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him.
'I don't know,' he said. 'She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown.'
A senior citizen said to his eighty-year old buddy:
'So I hear you're getting married?'
'Yep!'
'Do I know her?'
'Nope!'
'This woman, is she good looking?'
'Not really.'
'Is she a good cook?'
'Naw, she can't cook too well.'
'Does she have lots of money?'
'Nope! Poor as a church mouse.'
'Well, then, is she good in bed?'
'I don't know.'
'Why in the world do you want to marry her then?'
'Because she can still drive!'
A man was telling his neighbor, 'I just bought a new hearing aid. It cost me four thousand dollars, but it's state of the art. It's perfect.'
'Really,' answered the neighbor. 'What kind is it?'
'Twelve thirty.'
Morris, an 82 year-old man, went to the doctor to get a physical.
A few days later, the doctor saw Morris walking down the street with a gorgeous young woman on his arm.
A couple of days later, the doctor spoke to Morris and said, 'You're really doing great, aren't you?'
Morris replied, 'Just doing what you said, Doc: 'Get a hot mamma and be cheerful.''
The doctor said, 'I didn't say that.. I said, 'You've got a heart murmur; be careful.'
