" Laughter is the Best Medicine " is the title of a thread here so let's have another little joke: Growing old is when you're told to slow down by the Doctor instead of the Police.

Okay then let's try this one: Growing old is when " getting a little action " means you don't need to eat any fibre.

A quote from Ogden Nash: " Growing old is when you've met so many people that every new person you meet reminds you of someone else. "
