Humor Is Wasted On The Elderly

Well, Pop Culture, At The Very Least

Dad's going in for a routine colonoscopy tomorrow. He's switched doctors and insurance providers, so he & Mom are taking the opportunity to have a variety of procedures done since they can get them approved easily.

I begged, nay, PLEADED for Dad to start singing 'Moon River' when the scope began its journey, and to be sure and thank the Doc afterwards and ask if he's ever served time. Dad failed to see the humor in this request, obviously never having seen the particular movie that line is from.

Bonus points if YOU did! Comments are waiting.

BTW, Mom goes in for the same thing Thursday. Maybe I can rent it for them tomorrow night!
