That's funny & old school for sure.

Dad always has jokes going. Unfortunately for him the humor is lost on those who never wore knickers. Case in point: When the young Asian nurse asked if he had cataracts. "No, but I once had a Rincoln". I swear with God as my witness he said that. Fortunately it appeared to go over her head. I told her "He meant 'no'. He rambles often. Just keep on going."
When she looked back at her clipboard I gave him that 'Shoosh' look and he kept on snickering.

ok, I LOL'ed at that one,

funny (kinda) story time,

my ex Sister in Law (she is still family , regardless of the fact my brother left her) is an administrator at a nursing home\rehab\memory care facility,

she had a patient,
male, in his late 80's, that had a private room
he liked porn,
so much so that he would beg the staff to bring him more, when he got tired with what he had,
had it playing on his TV most of the time,

after a bit, he would get a bit randy, and go off down the hall, nothing on but a hospital gown, and sporting a woody,
he always managed to find a girlfriend to help him out,

he was a bit infamous, all the nurses actually liked him and got a chuckle out of him

This is not unusual. We had a lady collapse -- she was undergoing treatment for cancer -- and our local hospital couldn't transport her to a larger hospital with more capabilities because she didn't have an "approved diagnosis."
