George,

 GP> Yup, plus I just don't want the hassle. . .

  Yeah, you don't want to have to laundry any more than necessary.

 GP> Until my adult stepdaughter moved in, I'd gone 12 years hardly ever
 GP> dressed (only if going out, or home support person in that day)

  Being home alone is where you can poop with the door open. <G>

 GP> Someone asked an Australian MP: Why did England send America all their
 GP> Puritans & then their murderers to Australia?
 GP> The MP answered, "We won first choice."

  Really.

 GP> The sugar could cause crystals in your kidneys (& type 2 diabetes)

  I'm pre-type 2 -- the A1C was 5.7 last September. But, since my clinic was
closed from significant water damage from 2 back to back snowstorms this
winter, and the time needed with the COVID-19 shots, I haven't had the full
blood work or complete physical done. I've been trying to get the mess with
the bathrooms fixed before I worry about that.

 GP> Nort me -- my head stays out in the open -- I'd suffocate in there, if
 GP> the poison gas(methane) didn't kill me first!

  Green haze risin', o'er the horizon. :P

 >   Getting old is NOT for sissies.

 GP> They get it, too -- it's a equal opportunity disabler!

  That's what so many refuse to realize or accept.

 >   That's the economy version of Playboy. <G>

 GP> Yup, good ol' National Pornographic -- we rushed to the school library
 GP> on the day the new issue arrived -- this was in grade 5 for me!

  Or like in Mad Magazine years ago...there was a newsstand selling Playboy,
and someone had used graffitti to make it read "If you enjoy self Play, boy
this magazine will sure help". :P I saw where Larry Flynt, who started Hustler
magazine, died recently.

 GP> Gramps retorted, "Shows how little you doctors know -- my right knee is
 GP> likewise 80 years old, but it don't hurt!"

  I'll bet he still had to pay the doctor $250.

 GP> Written by scifi author Dr. Isaac Asimov:
 GP> (tune of "Home on the Range")

  Darn...now a second tune in my head today. :P

 GP> My evil clone is trying to attack me.
 GP> But I probably shouldn’t beat myself up over it.

  Or the scientist who created a clone, but the creature was
cussing, and getting the scientist in trouble. So the scientist
pushed the creature out of a high rise window to his death.
Unfortunately, his deed was seen, and he was arrested, tried,
and convicted for "making an obscene clone fall". <G>

 GP> Q: What’s a clones favorite letter?
 GP> A: W

  UU is the redneck version. <G>

 GP> Me: "I'm going to clone myself"
 GP> Dad: "that would be just like you".

  Talk about an evil twin.

Daryl

.... I had a rock garden. Last week, three of them died.
