Posted: Thu Mar 17, 2011 2:18 am
Boudreaux, an 80-year-old South Louisiana Cajun, goes to
the doctor for his
Every year check-up.
The doctor is amazed at what good shape he is in and
asks, "How do you stay
In such great physical condition, Boudreaux?"
"I stay in de swamp and I hunt and fish every day", said
the old Cajun.
"Dat's why I'm in such good shape. I'm up well before
daylight and out
Hunting or fishing all day. I have a beer for breakfast
and at lunch and wid
My supper. And, I have a shot of hooch before bed time.
And, I say my
Prayers every night. And all is well wid me."
Well", says the doctor, "I'm sure the prayers help, but
there's got to be
More to it. How old was your father when he died?"
"Who said Pop is dead?"
The doctor is amazed. "You mean you are 80 years old and
your father is
Still alive? How old he is?"
"Pop be 100 next month," replied Boudreaux. "In fact, he
hunted with me dis
Mornin, and den we went to a beer joint for a while and
had a few beers and
Dat's' why he's still alive. He is a tough Cajun man and
he hunts and fishes
Everyday, too."
"Well, the doctor says, that's great! But, I'm sure
there's more to it than
That. How about your father's father? How old was he
when he died?"
"Who said my Paw Paw's dead?"
Stunned, the doctor asks, "You mean you are 80 years
old, your father is 100
And your grandfather is still living? Incredible! How
old he is?"
"We tink 'bout 118." says the old Cajun. He likes his
beer, too, but he
Won't touch the hard stuff."
The doctor is getting frustrated at this point, "So, I
guess your
Grandfather went hunting and fishing with you and your
father this morning,
Too?"
"No, Paw Paw couldn't go dis time. He's gettin' married
today."
At this point the doctor is close to losing it. "Getting
married! Why would
A 118-year-old man want to get married?"
Boudreaux looked down at the floor and mumbled "Who said
he wanted to?"
