The Old Cowboy

Posted Wed Mar 10, 2004 in

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

The grandson did this religiously and lived to the age of 110.

He left behind 4 children, 20 grandchildren, 30 great-grandchildren, 10 great-great grandchildren, and a fifty-foot crater where the crematorium used to be.

  2. It sort of reminds me of the original Ocean's Eleven, at the end. "What's that smell?" Linkmeister    12 March 2004, 17:25    #

  3. Hey Dad! You know were I can get my hands on some of that gunpowder. I would like to live a prolonged life, and leaving a surprise at the crematorium would be a hilarious way to be remembered. ;) — Son-n-law    13 March 2004, 05:02    #
