A tough old cowboy from south Texas counseled his grandson that if he wanted to live a long life, the secret was to sprinkle a pinch of gun powder on his oatmeal every morning.

The grandson did this religiously to the ripe old age of 103 when he died.

He left behind 14 children, 30 grandchildren, 45 great-grandchildren, 25 great-great-grandchildren, and a 150-foot hole where the crematorium used to be.

    LOL.

    Once on Johnny Carson decades back a100 year old man was interviewed on the show. Johnny asked him to what he attributed his old age. The guy's answer? "to the fact I haven't died yet."

      Love it...

      I saw an interview with a sports coach where one of the ex-jock talking heads just had to ask him what the key to winning the game was. The question came at the end of a 20 minute interview where they talked about each team's strengths and weaknesses, possible strategies, etc.

      The coach looked at the guy like he was a backward child and said "The key to winning this game will be to have more points than they do when the game ends."
