Three men were discussing aging at the nursing home.
"Sixty is the worst age to be," said the 60-year-old. You always feel like you have to pee, but most of the time you stand at the toilet and nothing comes out!"
"Ah, that's nothin'," said the 70-year-old. "When you're seventy,you can't have a bowel movement anymore. You take laxatives, eat bran, you sit on the toilet all day and nothin' comes out!"
"Actually," said the 80-year-old, "Eighty is the worst age of all."
"Do you have trouble peeing too?" asked the 60-year-old.
"No, not really. I pee every morning at 6:00 like a racehorse with no problem at all." answered the 80 year old.
"Do you have trouble having a bowel movement?" questioned the 70 year old.
"No, I have a bowel movement every morning at 6:30 with great exasperation." the 80 year old exclaimed.
What's so tough about being 80 then?" the 60 year old asked impatiently.
"Well...I don't wake up until 7."
