FUN WITH FOGIES:
KEEP 'EM JUMPING WITH A JOKE ABOUT FALLING
I have a very dear elderly buddy who moved recently to a senior citizen center up in North Dakota to be near his family. He can see a lot of northern wildlife cavorting out his window, and he really likes living there.
He reported that he has started a physical therapy class designed to teach balance in order to keep from falling, a major threat to older folks.
In the first session, each "student" told about their own experiences with falling.
The oldest guy went last. At 93, he muttered devilishly:
"They must have had us folks in mind when they named this town 'Fergus FALLS.'"
It brought down the house . . . so to speak.
