An 86-year-old man went to his doctor for his regular checkup.
After the examination, the doctor smiled and asked,
“So, how have you been feeling?”
The old man grinned.
“Never better, Doc!”
“I’ve just married a beautiful 20-year-old woman…
…and she’s pregnant with my child.”
“What do you think about that?”
The doctor paused for a moment, then smiled.
“Let me tell you a story.”
“I have an elderly friend, much like you, who’s an enthusiastic hunter. He never misses hunting season.”
“One morning, he was in such a hurry to leave that he accidentally grabbed his walking cane instead of his hunting rifle.”
“As he reached the edge of a lake, he spotted a huge beaver sitting on the bank.”
“He realized he’d forgotten his rifle, so out of habit he raised his walking cane, aimed it at the beaver, and shouted,
‘Bang! Bang!’”
The doctor paused.
“To everyone’s amazement, the beaver immediately fell over dead.”
He looked at the old man and asked,
“So… what do you think happened?”
The old man chuckled.
“Well, the only logical explanation is that someone else fired the shots.”
The doctor smiled.
“My point exactly.”
