Doctors say that we all need exercise. Here's a story about bass fishing and exercise, if you can make the connection.
By Sam
"I'm a bass fisherman," says the guy, "and that's why I'm in such good shape. I'm up well before the first rays of daylight peek over the horizon and out fishing up and down the rivers and lakes all the time. I have a glass of vino, and all is well with the world."
"Well," says the doctor, "I'm sure that helps, but there has to be more to it. How old was your father when he died?"
"Who said he was dead?"
The doctor is amazed. "You mean you're 80 years old, and your father's still alive. How old is he?"
"He's 100 years old," says the bass fisherman. "In fact, he fished with me this morning, and then we went to the nude beach for a walk and had a little vino, and that's why he's still alive. He's a bass fisherman and a good one, too."
"Well," the doctor says, "that's great, but I'm sure there's more to it than that. How about your father's father? How old was he when he died?"
"Who said my Nonno is dead?"
Stunned, the doctor asks, "You mean you're 80 years old, and your grandfather's still living? Incredible! How old is he?"
"He's 118 years old," says the old bass fisherman.
The doctor is getting frustrated at this point. "So, I guess he went fishing with you this morning, too?"
"No, Nonno couldn't go this morning, because he's getting married today."
At this point, the doctor is close to losing it. "Getting married? Why would a 118-year-old guy want to get married?"
"Who said he wanted to?"
