Joke of the Week: A Senior Moment
A police car pulls up in front of grandma Bessie's house.
The car door opens, and grandpa Morris gets out.
The polite policeman escorts him up to the house.
"This elderly gentleman said that he was lost in the park and couldn't find his way home," he explains to grandma Bessie.
"Oh, Morris," grandma says. "You've been going to that park for over 30 years! How could you get lost?"
He leans close to grandma so that the policeman can't hear.
"Oh, Morris," grandma says. "You've been going to that park for over 30 years! How could you get lost?"
He leans close to grandma so that the policeman can't hear.
"I wasn't lost," grandpa Morris whispers. "I was just too tired to walk home."
