A 'seasoned' ham, age 60 is visiting the doctor for his annual
physical.

The doctor says: "I'm amazed at your good shape, what's your secret?"

The OM replies: "Well Doc, it's like this. I'm a ham operator who
likes Morse Code, and that keeps me young. I get up well before dawn
every day for some early morning high-speed Morse code conversations
with operators around the country - that keeps my mind sharp.

Then I generally putter around my workshop building projects, which
keeps my fingers and arms limber and wards off arthritis.

In the afternoon, I often climb my antenna tower for adjustments, or
move heavy radio equipment around, which gives me plenty of exercise.
At night, I like to read technical books and magazines which soothe my
eyes, and when I'm finished, I sleep great."

The Doctor says: "That's amazing; how old was your Dad when he died?"

The OM replies: "Died!?" Who said anything about Dad dying? He's a
spry man of 79, he's also a ham operator, and in fact, this morning I
had my usual Morse code conversation with him and he's doing fine."

Now the Doctor is really impressed. "Well, how old was your
Grandfather when he died?"

The OM replies: "Died!?" Who said anything about Grandpa dying?
He's 98 and...."

Now the Doctor is getting a bit exasperated: "Don't tell me, he was on
the air with you this morning also..."

OM: "Actually Doc, he usually is, but this morning he got married.":

Doc: "Got married? Why on earth would a man of 98 want to get
married?"

OM: "Want to!?" Who said anything about Grandpa wanting to?...."

Welp, I guess this is preferable to you calling people "assholes."
Maybe a couple more clean jokes and you'll earn your "nice-guy" facade
back.

Best of Luck.

A Marine Sergeant Major is waiting for a plane in a busy terminal
when these two pretty young things sit down across from him.

Although impressed by all the ribbons, stripes and hashmarks, one
of the young girls was intent on giving him a ribbing...

She walked over to the Marine and said, "Sir, I bet you've been
around the world a lot, haven't you?" she asked.

"Yes Ma'am, I have" the Marine replied courteously but
appreciative that something was up.

"Well...when was the last time you went 'around the world' with a
girl as young and pretty as me?" she teased.

"1953, Ma'am" was his quick response..

"1953..?!?! Wasn't that an alwfully long time ago?" she replied
in shock.

"Not really..", he replied, "It's only 2115 now!"

She went back to her seat and didn't say another word.
