A Texan walks into a pub in Ireland and clears his voice to the crowd of drinkers. He says, "I hear you Irish are a bunch of hard drinkers. I'll give $500 American dollars to anybody in here who can drink 10 pints of Guinness back-to-back."
The room is quiet and no one takes up the Texan's offer. One man even leaves. Thirty minutes later the same gentleman who left shows back up and taps the Texan on the shoulder. "Is your bet still good?", asks the Irishman.
The Texan says yes and asks the bartender to line up 10 pints of Guinness. Immediately the Irishman tears into all 10 of the pint glasses drinking them all back-to-back. The other pub patrons cheer as the Texan sits in amazement.
The Texan gives the Irishman the $500 and says, "If ya don't mind me askin', where did you go for that 30 minutes you were gone?"
The Irishman replies, "Oh...I had to go to the pub down the street to see if I could do it first".
 
A Seniors Poem

At the chemists today, the lad was a gent.

From my purchases, he knocked off ten per cent.

I asked for the reason for the lesser amount;

And he said - "Because of the Seniors discount!"


I went to McDonald's for a Burger and Fries;

And once again, I got quite a surprise.

The girl poured some coffee which she handed to me;

She said, "For you sir, as a Senior - the coffee is free."


The point is, I'm not Old! - I'm merely Mature!

But some things are changing; just how, I'm not sure.

The print on the pages, seems to get smaller each day;

And people speak softer - can't hear what they say.


My teeth are my own (I still have the receipt!);

And I can still recognise most of the people I meet.

Oh, I've slowed down a bit - not a lot, I am sure.

You see - I'm not Old, I'm merely Mature.


The colour in my hair has been bleached by the sun.

You should see all the damage that chlorine has done!

It appears that washing my hair has turned it all white;

But don't say I'm going bald! - it doesn't sound right.


My friends all get older, much faster than me.

They seem much more wrinkled, from what I can see.

I've got "character lines," not wrinkles, for sure.

But don't call me Old! - just call me Mature!


The steps in the houses they're building today

Are all so high, they take your breath away.

The streets are much steeper than ten years ago.

That certainly explains why my walking is slow.


But I'm keeping up, on what's hip and what's new.

I reckon I can still dance a mean boogaloo.

I'm still in the running, in this I'm secure,

But don't call me Old! - I'm merely Mature!
