Time To Get My Oil Checked

I had my yearly doctor's exam last week. He put on a glove and checked my oil, listened to my heart and took blood samples. We met today and he said I was a quart low, but overall, I was in good health for a man of 93.

He said, "Jimmy, everything looks great physically. How are you doing mentally and emotionally? Are you at peace with yourself and with God?" I told him, "God and me are very close. He knows I have poor eyesight, so he's fixed it so that when I get up in the middle of the night to go pee (poof!)....the light goes on. Then, when I'm finished (poof!)....the light goes off."

Later, while I was getting my next appointment, he talked to my girlfriend and asked about "the light". She said, "I've got to watch that old fool. He's been peeing in the refrigerator again!"
