Mirth and joking, as long as they are not at someone’s expense, are God-given human attributes that spell happiness. One of the funny stories about us oldsters is about the doctor who asked his 85-year-old patient, Annabel, if she and her husband still had intercourse. She said, “Wait a minute.”
She then proceeded to the waiting room, where her husband sat, and called out, “Henry, do we still have intercourse?”
“If I told you once I’ve told you a thousand times,” came the reply, “We have Blues Cross. That’s Blue Cross and Blue Shield.”
