HUMOUR

As Robert was walking down the street, he met an old man who looks so happy that he stopped and talked to him. "Grandpa, you look so happy and apparently live a very long life, what are your habits."

"Well, I smoked ten packs of cigarettes a day, drank gallons of wine, I never exercise…."

"Remarkable," said Robert, confounded. "How old are you now?"

"Thirty two…" replied the old man.
