Beaver
An 86-year-old man went to his doctor for his quarterly check-up... The doctor asked him how he was feeling, and the 86-year-old said, 'Things
are great and I've never felt better.'I now have a 20 year-old bride who is pregnant with my child. 'So what do you think about that
Doc?' The doctor considered his question for a minute and then began to tell a story. 'I have an older friend, much like you, who is an
avid hunter and never misses a season.One day he was setting off to go hunting. In a bit of a hurry, he accidentally picked up his walking cane
instead of his gun. As he neared a lake, he came across a very large male beaver sitting at the water's edge. He realized he'd left his
gun at home and so he couldn't shoot the magnificent creature. Out of habit he raised his cane, aimed it at the animal as if it were his
favorite hunting rifle and went 'bang, bang'.Miraculously, two shots rang out and the beaver fell over dead. Now, what do you think of
that?' asked the doctor. The 86-year-old said, 'Logic would strongly suggest that somebody else pumped a couple of rounds into that
beaver.' The doctor replied, 'My point exactly.'

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.
